For three decades, Joe Murphy has had the pleasure of meeting and connecting with people from all walks of life through photography.

He has photographed presidents and heads of state, traversed the winding alleyways of the Fes Medina in Morocco, photographed the sprawling countryside and people that make up Argentina and covered events that have defined the U.S.

He has spent the past 20 years specializing in agriculture communications for multiple organizations, publications and marketing projects.

A graduate of the University of Iowa, Murphy determined at an early age that his love of photography and storytelling would shape his vision for life.
