Joseph Saunders is a photographer whose work has been exhibited across the country, from New York to Los Angeles and throughout New England. Specializing in street and documentary photography, Joseph captures the fleeting moments of the mundane and the whispers of in-between experiences, finding beauty in what often goes unnoticed.
Primarily working with traditional black-and-white film in the darkroom, Joseph’s practice celebrates the tactile and timeless qualities of analog processes while embracing innovative techniques like risograph printing and hybrid workflows. His work reflects a deep curiosity about storytelling, process, and the intersection of the visual and the ephemeral.
