Josh Blumental Photography

I clearly received a different service than other viewers. Mr. Blumental misrepresented his services to me. Specifically, I asked about what was included in the package I had purchased and was told the items I wanted would be included, but they were not. When I inquired about this after the service, Mr. Blumental’s response was condescending and quite offensive.

We loved our family photos by Josh! We recently moved to the area and I spent a long time searching for the right photographer to capture our family and, in particular, the magical period where our toddler has developed a sense of humor but absolutely no sense of shame. We are not into a lot of the posed pictures of your everyday family photographer, which is a big reason I chose Josh since his photos seem to tend to capture a lot more of the character of his subjects. The photo session was great (outdoor suited us perfect, but the studio shoots look pretty cool too), and our photos turned out awesome. Every time I see them I smile and laugh — what more could you want?!

Josh is a super talented photographer, who manages to put everybody at ease both human and non-​human, and really capture people’s spirits. Not only that, but he’s just a really nice guy. Our dog had an aggressive cancer and he went above and beyond to get photographs for us as a family before we lost him. I think it shows when someone is passionate about their art, both in the process and in the finished product. The photographs he took are beautiful and they mean a great deal to us.

While living in Salt Lake, Josh was my favorite photographer. I found his work inspirational and technically flawless. Recently, I had moved to the East Coast and have been expanding my own photography business and have felt, at times, quite overwhelmed. I remembered seeing a mentoring section on Josh’s website so I traveled back and took advantage of the option.
It has been a better investment in my business than my camera was. He really explains how to operate a successful, efficient business in great detail. Not only does he instruct, but he does so in a very enjoyable way. He is personable, funny, talented, and extremely intelligent. Applying the knowledge that he has given me, has improved the way my business is functioning in a few short weeks. Not only are things running smoother but I am now able to feel less overwhelmed, focus more on marketing, building rapport and of course put my creative energy to use!
No online photography class or university could give me what I took away from my mentoring sessions with Josh and if you are considering a mentor program, I highly suggest stopping your search here and giving Josh as call.

I have admired Josh’s work for my family in SLC for many years. On a recent visit scheduled a session for family photos. Have two kids, one who loves her photo taken and a sullen teenager who does not. Josh was able to work with the kids and make the experience not only enjoyable but really got some great family photos. Would highly recommend him.

Josh took some amazing pictures of our siberian husky a few weeks ago. I had been admiring his pictures at K9 loft in sherman oaks for some time. I often see emails that he’s doing sessions here in LA and decided to hop on one of them as a gift to my boyfriend. We took our Siberian in on a Sunday and Josh got some really incredible pictures. He was personable and fun to be around for the hot sweaty session and Vox did great. We just ordered our pictures. I’ve already recommended him to a friend to contact to get pictures of his little girl taken.

Oh I have been remiss at posting this rec! Josh was recommended to us through a wedding planner in Park City. We wanted a great, high energy creative talent to shoot our daughters destination wedding at Amelia Island in Florida. Josh traveled to Florida, shot the entire days events and absolutely captured the majic of a very very special day in our lives! He connected with all of our family and friends and left us with images of the wedding that are spectacular! My only regret is that I didn’t have him shoot the rehearsal dinner! As a side note; Josh has just shot our daughter, her husband and their new baby — can hardly wait to see how these turn out! I highly recommend Josh Blumental for personal or commercial photography!

I’ve had my portrait done many times in my life. They have always done the job of being a good likeness. Josh has somehow taken my image a step further in that he has captured who I am inside as well. Josh is fun, energetic, and a professional. Give him a try for your next sitting, I’m sure you will be as pleased with the outcome as I am.

Josh is creative and innovative. I grew up with the standard family portrait. Everyone in a row. Josh finds and shows what is important about people so the portraits have a real sense of who each member of the family is – while still connecting the group. He is like the horse whisperer of portraiture.

I just worked with Josh for the first time a few weeks ago. I booked a session for my fussy cattle dog, Layla, hoping for a few good shots out of the bunch. Josh was prompt, professional, and fantastic with Layla. She’s a tricky little dog and was a little on the grouchy side for our session. Josh worked with her in such a relaxed manner with positive, laid-​back energy that Layla was able to let her guard down and he was able to capture many fantastic moments. Now my only problem is deciding which prints I want! I highly recommend Josh’s photography services!

Not only talented, but a lot of fun. Portraits from Josh are not what you expect. They’re better!

Josh has been taking my family pictures for eight years. I am so impressed that the photos come out fresh and original EVERY YEAR! He has an amazing way of getting natural, unique pictures of kids,
A great, original artist stands out among the sea of «ok.» Josh is the real deal.

A friend of mine bought me a gift certificate good for 1 session with Josh. He photographs everything from pets to families to food. He’s got a very unique style that simply stands out. We decided to drive out to his studio in Utah to get the full experience even though he comes out to L.A. every so often. I emailed Josh and had no problem setting a date/​time that worked for everyone. After a very cold sleep deprived 24 hr roundtrip drive I can still say it was worth it.
Josh is an all around great person. He even suggested local food/​sites for us to see. As a photographer he was super friendly, informative and patient. My dog was trying to runaway and hide for a good while. He brought out several toys and even a blanket to put her at ease. He even changed the backdrop cuz he said some dogs freak out with too much white. Who’d have known?
Anyway the raw pictures looked great so I’m really excited to see/​order the final products. I love my dog and would never have even thought about having a professional take pictures of her but i’m so glad I did :) It’s a unique gift to give/​receive not to mention a very memorable experience: D I’d totally book him again in the future.
