I'M THE FACE
BEHIND THE CAMERA
Hey, There
,
I’m Dominic Joy-- DJ for short.
In my life I have worn several labels: professional photographer, executive director, educator, world traveler, coach, and worship leader--all while navigating life with my husband and three precious kiddos (one heaven-side).
I start each day intending to find joy and humor somewhere throughout the day. And, I am able to find it! Every. Single. Day.
I consider it a privilege to capture and celebrate seniors as they mark this wonderful milestone in their lives. As a former high school educator, I relish the opportunity to work with and honor the individuality of each Minnesota senior! As a high schooler, I played softball and volleyball, was a part of the color guard and show choir, and belonged to a couple clubs including NHS. When I was just hanging out, I would dream of places I could travel with my camera.
FROM OUR MINNEBRAND GRADS

My daughter was apprehensive going into senior photos. But Dominic Joy explained what we can expect, solicited input from my daughter, encouraged and guided her through various scenes and poses, and had my once nervous daughter laughing and giggling through the process. Dominic Joy at MinneBrand Photography captured the beauty of my daughter in ways I never knew existed.
- Michelle mother of 2024 grad
Thank you MinneBrand Photography for amazing senior portraits of Isabelle. The photos are beautiful, well done and just what we were looking for. The location and setting made for exquisite photos from sports to elegance. We are so grateful for these memories.
- Tiana mother of 2025 grad
I was really impressed with how easily Dominic related to my daughter during her Senior pictures, making it a fun experience! I would highly recommend her.

FAQ 1: WHAT IF THERE IS BAD WEATHER ON THE
DAY OF OUR SENIOR PORTRAITS?
Weather and life happen! If it looks like weather might be an issue, two days before your scheduled shoot, we will connect to determine if an alternate day is best. Typically, predicted rain showers or high wind would necessitate a reschedule. Because many seniors opt to have special hair and/or makeup done, every chance to keep the same day (but move the time if possible) will be made. If a change is needed, the reschedule will occur within 2 weeks of the original date. MinneBrand sets aside back up dates for our Minnesota weather! But...believe it or not, overcast days can actually be photographer's ideal lighting!
