Todd Joyce, Photography, Video, Directing and Editing

As a Cincinnati commercial photographer , I work in video/motion, healthcare, lifestyle, portrait, and industrial photography.  And I am also a FAA licensed drone pilot.

I got my start as a still photographer and over time transitioned to add commercial video production around 2010.  I love being able to create stunning and cohesive video and stills for the same campaign.  We’ve all seen advertising  campaigns where the photography and video just don’t match.  Imagine having the same crew/person doing both so that they work together perfectly.  Studio or location, we can build or scout to get you what you need.  Joyce Photography is located just north of Cincinnati Ohio, between Cincinnati, Columbus and Dayton in the beautiful community of Lebanon OH.  We can handle large and small productions and can be stealthy and at all times professional.

“Todd thrives when he’s let loose to push creative boundaries.... (he) always gets his subjects to lay it all out there, thanks to his genuine sense of humor, raw openness and calm and gentle way with people.

Video Production –

You might ask how Optic Lizard and Joyce Photography work together… seamlessly is the answer.  In 2010, I  partnered with two other great photographers and friends, Tony Arrasmith and Joe Harrison to form the Optic Lizard Productions brand.   We’re able to bring a vast amount of experience in a smaller crew, making productions easier to manage and most times, easier on the budget.  Based in Cincinnati Ohio, we do video production, editing, directing, aerial drone and photography in one place.  Commercial video and still photography done by the same people at the same time.  And don’t let based in Cincinnati fool you.  We travel everywhere.  We’ve shepherded large productions and shot in many other states.
