About
Joshua Griffler is a New York–based photographer focused on portraiture rooted in culture, personality, and presence. With over a decade of experience working in and around the city, his work captures people with a sense of immediacy—blending natural energy with a refined, editorial eye.
Grounded in street sensibility but elevated through a fashion-informed lens, Joshua's images prioritize authenticity over excess. His subjects don't feel overproduced—they feel real, confident, and fully themselves. Whether in studio or on location, he creates work that sits comfortably between portrait, lifestyle, and fashion.
After building his foundation alongside leading fashion photographers, Joshua developed a visual language that translates across photography, videography, and production. His credits include Vibe Magazine's VStyle and features in Elle Girl, along with work for brands like Banana Republic and Nike.
He has photographed a range of cultural figures including T.I., Ludacris, Justin Guarini, Janice Dickinson, Channing Tatum, Peyton Manning, and Russell Wilson. His work moves easily between cultural figures and everyday subjects, always centered on connection and character.
