Bio
Sean Cayton
Joanna is a truly gifted photographer. She's passionate, caring and immensely concerned with the honesty of her photographs. She is one of a select few photographers capable of making images that transcend the moment and become something much more. I'm honored to have photographed alongside her and I've learned an incredible amount. Her thoroughness and attention to detail is one of her greatest strengths. But more importantly her relationship with her subjects is paramount. You will find no one better whether it's on assignment anywhere in the world or it's your wedding day.
Kent Meireis
Joanna and I met 10-years ago when she volunteered to hang a show of pictures from her Girl's Stories personal project at the National Press Photographer Associations convention. Since then we had the opportunity to work together photographing weddings several times. Joanna is a pleasure to work with as she prepares for a wedding with the same passion and dedication she does for her National Geographic magazine assignments.

Working with Solar Sister fulfills a dream of taking the talents and skills I have developed over 36 years and working with a dedicated team supporting women entrepreneurs, improving the lives of women, girls, their families, and their communities in Africa. The African women we work with are enterprising, sharp businesswomen, and dedicated. My job is creative and challenging, creating social media, blogs, newsletters, photography, and video, including media support for our partners. The work includes core areas: gender equity in business, supporting women and girls, access to clean energy, climate change, health, and sustainability. I am proud to be a member of this team.

Ted Scripps Fellow

Aug 2016 - May 2017
As a Scripps Fellow at the Center for Environmental Journalism, my project centered on HAP and the effect of cooking over open fires in the developing world, how the use of clean cookstoves impacts the lives of women and children, deforestation, air quality, and poverty. I took graduate classes in Environmental and Science Writing and Reporting, Public Speaking, Narrative Non-Fiction, Data Journalism, Short-form Video, After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro, basic coding, and weekly seminars on current environmental topics. The fellows are selected in a competitive process for the prestigious Scripps Fellowship, which allows fellows use of the facilities of the University of Colorado and a generous stipend for one academic year.
