About Framed by Joel
Framed by Joel is the work of Joel Gonsalves, an Adelaide-based photographer who has been taking paid shoots since 2016. His style is relaxed and vibrant, with minimal direction, so the photos show the funny, unplanned moments as well as the posed ones. For celebrations, Joel covers engagement parties, milestone birthdays, anniversaries and other social events. He works around the room through the speeches and onto the dance floor, so hosts can enjoy their own party and still come away with a full gallery. Wedding work centres on smaller days: registry office ceremonies, elopements and intimate weddings, plus surprise proposals where he stays hidden until the question is asked. Galleries on his blog include a registry wedding in the city, a 1920s-themed engagement party and an annual ball. On the corporate side, Joel photographs events, brand activations and team headshots in an editorial style, with images suited to websites, annual reports, press and social media. He also photographs baptisms, working quietly inside the church before family portraits outdoors. Hosts can share the date, the location and the kind of photos they want when they first get in touch.
