Joshua Mondshein
With an Electrical Engineering degree and a day job in ITS, as the days go by I increasingly rely on my creative hobbies to keep me sane. Photography has become the biggest and most important of those, with a head nod to the guitar, so I recently decided to take the leap from being the guy with the camera at all my friends kids events to being an actual semi-professional photographer. I love being able to grab those special moments for the people I care about, and can’t wait to turn my passion into the ability to do that for perfect strangers as well!
Portrait, headshot, and family photographer
I also take a lot of pictures of my puppy
I live in the suburbs of Boston with my wife and Golden Retriever Desmond, who loves to watch Mets games with me and aspires to someday attend a 'bark at the park' game at Citi field. I'm an avid reader, and I also enjoy books. Outside of photography, playing guitar and board games (some really fun ones I can recommend if you're interested!) are two of my favorite pastimes.
Fact 1
I was born and raised in New York, so I have a particular passion for perfect pizza...and alliteration.
Fact 2
Grabbing pictures of my friends and their families in their element is an old hobby of mine, so portraiture is like second nature to me. First nature is, well, nature photography.
A little more about me...
Fact 3
I find photography a great way to connect with people, and there's nothing like capturing an amazing moment for someone and seeing the look on their face when they see the image for the first time. This work is super meaningful to me.
Fact 4
The board game 'Pandemic Legacy Season 1' wrecked me for weeks. If you know what this is, I'm sorry. If you don't, well, consider yourself better off.
We had a great experience having Josh take my daughter’s senior pictures. He made her feel comfortable from the very beginning of the shoot and that showed in the end result. In the end, we had so many options of great pictures to choose from. He really captured her personality and sparkle.
