Client and Guide Photography in the field

Book me for your day in the field

I document the real moments that make a day in the field worth remembering. I’m Joe Hess, based in the Vail Valley - Gypsum Colorado. I am comfortable working on rivers, in timber, and on the trail. I move with the group, stay out of the way, and deliver images that feel true to the day. 

Guides get useful marketing content. Clients get the story of their trip.

Field Photography - Making Memories that Matter

Experience you can trust in the field

Experience you can trust in the field

Experience you can trust in the field

I work with the group, move at field pace, and stay out of the way. The goal is simple: accurate coverage without slowing the day down. Images are delivered in a clean, organized gallery. Guides get material they can use for marketing. Clients get a record of the trip that matches what it felt like to be there.  I have the background and gear of a hunter and fisherman, so I fit into the day naturally and never stand out or need managing. I’m comfortable working in fast, cold, wet, or technical environments. You don’t need to adjust the day for the camera. I keep up.

Capturing the moments that matter

Experience you can trust in the field

Experience you can trust in the field

I grew up in Pennsylvania fishing, hunting, and spending most of my time outside. Those years shaped how I move in the field and how I see a day unfold. I have my own stories and memories from those trips, many of them I wish were documented better, or documented at all. That’s a big part of why I do this. You pay real money for a guided trip, sometimes a once‑in‑a‑lifetime experience. Let me document it so you have something to keep.  Turnaround times match the length of the trip. Short days are faster. Longer trips take more time but stay predictable. Rates reflect the field time, travel, and post‑work involved, and can be adjusted for specific requirements. I do limited video work, and I can add video coverage with a second photographer when needed.
