Greetings, my name is Joseph Ferreira, and here is a little about me and my background. I was born and raised in the Bay Area before moving to Rock Hill, South Carolina.
When I was 13 or 14, I started playing with Windows Paintbrush, and that was the start of my journey in design. My parents bought an early version of Corel Draw for my mom, but I think I used it more than she did. My mom was also an influence in my design and photography. She would always put the camera in our hands during |

family functions, so that she could be in the pictures too.
In 1999, I took an introduction course in photography at De Anza College, in Cupertino, CA. I borrowed my parents Canon AE-1 and began shooting 35mm Black & White film. The darkroom experience was awesome, and it has never left me.
In 2006, I decided to put my skills to use. I started with business cards, and in 2008, I began working on websites. 2010 was when I picked up my DSLR, and I love both film and digital. My goal is to one day build a large format camera. I am a passionate amatuer photographer, and I love passing that passion on.
In 2004, I married my beautiful wife, Bonnie. We have two wonderful children, Susanna and Franklin. |
