Published Books
Joe has been the principal photographer for three books on gardens.
His first book Garden Guide: New York City features publicly accessible gardens throughout the five boroughs of the city. The first edition was published in 2002 by The Little Book Room, and the revised edition was published by W.W. Norton in 2010. It is a must-have guide to exploring public gardens in NYC.
In 2003, Storey Books published The Flower Gardener’s Bible. It was the Winner of the 2004 Garden Globe Award for Best Photography for a garden book by the Garden Writers Association. It continues to be a successful and popular book for Storey.
In 2011, Joe again worked with Storey Books, producing photography for Nikki Jabbour’s popular book The Year Round Vegetable Gardener. All of the photography was shot in and around gardens in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Joe made four trips in six months to complete the assignment and gives much thanks to the photography angels who made sure there was the most perfect snow ever in January for the cover shoot and other winter imagery.
