In his 4k drone, video, time-lapse and still photographs, we see Joe’s America – a nation that is still full of adventure, natural beauty, joy, creativity and great accomplishments. Joe Sohm’s “Visions of America” is a 40 year, 50-state, million mile search for the images defining American Civilization on its 250th Anniversary. While each of Joe’s images tell a story, it’s the stories behind the imagery that inspires and entertains audiences across the USA in multi-media presentations at colleges, universities, trade associations and corporations. Joe is a gifted storyteller and his imagery provides the backdrop for his American Journey. In experiencing Joe’s stories and in seeing his stunning imagery, we realize that his story is ours . . . the American story. Joe’s presentations feature original music by Oscar-Grammy-Emmy winners and movie-stars including Clint Eastwood and William Shatner. Now it’s time to buckle your seatbelt and hit the road.
