Thank you for your interest in working with us.
My name is Joe Almano, and I'm a Canadian Commercial Photographer based in Dubai for the last 7 years.
I capture professional photos and videos for B2B clients such as brands, companies, and businesses.
I specialize in Commercial, Lifestyle, Luxury lifestyle, Fashion Lifestyle, Restaurants, Food & Beverage, Portraits, and events photography.
I do my own editing and high-end retouching (including beauty, cosmetic and skin editing).
I also do talent casting for all my own projects and manage a talent database with a growing list of over 5,000 models and actors who are skilled and talented in many different arts and practices.
I am an entrepreneur and artist at heart with a professional yet friendly attitude.
During productions, I value positive energy, accountability, confidence, a proactive mindset, respect, and having fun. (Yes its important to have a laugh sometimes even during a busy day!)

My Talent Goals: I aim to treat everyone equally, make sure you are well taken care of while on-set, and strive to assist/guide all talent to collaborate effectively and amicably. I am also well known for patiently conveying the creative vision of projects/scenes while taking into consideration the team's preferences. If you work with me, rest assured you will be given consideration and treated as a co-owner of the project. However, this does mean that I will set very high accountability expectations for everyone I work with - we will all have fun and work hard but everyone must always play-their-part as a professional.
My Client Goals: I aim to capture every requirement a client has requested while in collaboration with talents, models and actors. My work speed is very fast but precise. Working on a schedule is very important for me and every project I go to will have a detailed time-frame and shortlist to ensure we meet all the requirements of a client. I treat all projects with the utmost highest level of bespoke attention to detail with an emphasis on on-site flexibility. My goal is to over-deliver additional value as much as possible while making sure our whole team works smoothly and comfortably.
