Fine Art Photographer Joe Ligammari

My passion is people, landscape and cityscape photography. I strive to create images that evoke wonder, amusement, compassion, joy, mystery or the unthinkable. One that sheds new light on our world, raises questions about our world, or creates a new world. My images encompass “straight ahead” and artistic photography.

Who is Joe?

I am a professional Fine Art Photographer and Artist. My career spans over 25 years. Joe started  shooting black and white film and developing fine art prints in Joe Ligammari Photographyhis basement darkroom. At the time, I worked with a 35mm Nikon FE2 and medium format Hasselblad 500C/M. Today I shoot digital format, using Nikon and Elinchrom studio lighting equipment. Joe still takes out his Hasselblad  to enjoy shooting film.

Another passion I have is Street Photography. Many of my street photography images are posted to Instagram.

I have studied Photography at the School of Visual Arts and Cooper Union in New York City.

In addition, I am a NY and NJ Licensed Professional Engineer, with degrees in Chemical Engineering and Economics from New York University.

Today, my fine art photography is being displayed in homes and buildings throughout the United States.
