let's grow the business of your dreams.
I'm a multi-passionate entrepreneur with a love for photography and a flair for helping fellow creatives turn their dreams into reality. You might know me as Joy Michelle online, the woman behind Photoboss® and the host of the Called to Both podcast.
For 8 incredible years, I had the privilege of capturing the love and joy (and all the crazy in-between) as a wedding photographer. But as my passion for photography grew, so did my desire to help others achieve their dreams. That's when I took a leap and founded Photoboss®.
I'm living proof that you can have it all – a thriving business, a fulfilling career, and a family life that brings you endless joy. As a mom of two amazing kids, I understand the juggling act that comes with being a creative entrepreneur. That's why I've designed a business that allows me to follow my passions while spending quality time with my loved ones. I work smart, not hard, putting in 20 hours a week to make the magic happen.

MORE of my LIFE ON INSTA
Nothing makes you prioritize what is truly important like becoming a mother. Building a business that not only pays my bills but gives me time-freedom is a non negotiable for me.
I believe you shouldn't have to choose between the two. Feel called to both growing a business and motherhood? If so, I have a feeling we're going to be great friends.
MY WHY
I love sharing the resources that help me run my business smoothly. From softwares to books, you can find all my favorites here!

To anyone hesitant to invest, the only regret you will have is not taking advantage of Joy's programs. As someone who has been doing this for over 11 years, I will tell you with 100% certainty that the greatest growths I've had in my business have always been a result of investing in myself through education.

I gained confidence (to show up online!), booked new clients, & I doubles my prices. I'm so glad I took the leap to work with Joy. She doesn't gate keep a single thing. For someone considering investing I'd say, "What are you waiting for?!"
