New York Portrait and Wedding Photographer Joe Rumore bio picture

Welcome to my new blog site!

As a New Yorker all his life, Joe Rumore has always loved the timeless value of the still image. He began his career in broadcast television, working on various documentary programs for PBS and then in later years in TV news programs. That previous career path of documentary and journalism parlayed into the photographer he is today.

Joe has a passion for the art of wedding photography. He strives to visually create a story of your wedding in a more realistic, emotional and artistic way.

Joe’s inspiration comes from all of the heart-felt moments that take place throughout a wedding day. He loves to capture the romance, playfulness, and unspoken connection between couples.  He feels that images are often most beautiful and emotional when they are captured naturally, as they happen.

San Francisco Workshop!

I’ve been a bit busy lately…. so I haven’t had much opportunity to blog. This weekend I was in San Francisco attending the “Master Your Craft” workshop with renown California photographer Mike Colón and celebrity photographer Bob Davis. Mike has been a leader in wedding photography for years, teaching all around the world and shooting in exotic locations. Bob has been a professional photographer for over 20 years and most recently was the exclusive photographer for Eva Longoria and Tony Parker’s wedding in Paris. It was an awesome experience to learn and network with a few of the nation’s best photographers.

I feel it’s important for photographers to keep educating themselves all the time: it helps hone our skills; keeps us on top of the currents trends in photography; and it fosters great friendships. More importantly, it just motivates me to be a better photographer and storyteller.
