Joseph “JC” Carey is a lifelong image maker and recovered natural-light-only photographer. Like many of us, JC used to think flash was a four-letter word worthy of pulling your his hair out. His journey into lighting started with a hilariously bad lighting class in 2007—a true “gift” in the sense that it lit a fire under him to learn everything the instructor didn't teach. That fire turned into a full-blown passion for figuring out how to control light, shape it, and use it to create images that stand out. Fast forward 18 years and JC is now a professional photographer and the Northeast Sales & Marketing Rep for FJ Westcott and a proud lighting evangelist. He spends his days teaching people how to go “From Fear to Flash,” showing photographers that the best available light isn’t necessarily natural—it’s the one you can use consistently to stay creative, even when the sun’s being a diva. When he’s not lighting something (or someone), he’s being a dad, making photos, or finding new ways to make lighting fun, accessible, and a little less terrifying.

Pontus Höök’s interest in photography was sparked at a young age in Tranemo, Sweden. At 17, he had his first photo published in the local newspaper, an early milestone that later led to assignments with major publications and a solid foundation in photojournalism. In 1997, he took a leap of faith and moved to New York. Since then, he has spent nearly three decades capturing presidents, celebrities, and historic moments across the U.S. ​What began in a small Swedish town became a lifelong pursuit of capturing the extraordinary.
