About Josh Wilson

Josh was born in the Midwest region of the U.S. and developed a passion for travel and photography from a young age through his many family road trips around the States. His photography is designed to evoke a sense of nostalgia for travel and adventure, inspiring others to explore and experience the world.

Although Josh still calls St. Louis home, he has lived in several vibrant cities, including London, Nashville, and San Diego, and has traveled extensively through Europe. These experiences have deeply influenced the refined coastal aesthetic of his work, capturing the elegance and charm of seaside living.

Josh founded his photography business in 2021 and has since developed a profound passion for documenting the beauty of coastal destinations. Over the years, he has photographed iconic locales across the globe, including Italy, Greece, Southern California, Hawaii, and more. His work has been featured in collaborations with galleries such as Helm+Oar, Midnight Station, Urban Frames, and Dare Collective.

Each piece in Josh’s collection is crafted with an unwavering dedication to quality. His prints are created using premium archival matte paper or luxurious 300GSM cotton paper, specifically Breathing Color Elegance Velvet, which offers a rich texture, vibrant colors, and exceptional longevity. For framed artwork, Josh partners with leading framers in the U.S. to create custom, handcrafted frames made from high-quality natural hardwood. Available in black, white, or natural wood finishes, these frames feature UV-blocking acrylic and dust-resistant backing, ensuring that every piece is ready to display and built to last.

Through his photography, Josh hopes to bring the serenity and timeless beauty of the world’s coasts into your home.

What kind of frames do you use?

Small, Medium, and Large sizes feature a 2.5” mat-board for a classic look, with a 3/4” face and 1.5” depth.

GIANT, OVERSIZED & COLLECTOR
Giant, Oversized, and Collector prints are framed with a printed fine art border around the image in a premium shadowbox frame.

What is your Exhibition size like?

The Exhibition Print is our most luxurious offering, designed to enhance your art collection with a museum-quality presentation. Printed on heavyweight 300GSM fine art paper, this exclusive piece features a handcrafted shadowbox frame and a pedestal-mounted print, creating a striking, dimensional effect that gives the impression of the artwork floating within the frame. Due to the size of these prints, they cannot be shipped via UPS or FedEx and will be delivered through a private “white glove” service. Orders for this size are not finalized until I receive your phone number and email address, as the courier will need to contact you to coordinate delivery. You will receive a message from me once the order is confirmed. 

Are the prints mounted?

Yes, all prints are dry mounted before being framed. Dry mounting is the process of securing the art to a foam board to prevent movement within the frame. A low-grade heat press is used to secure art to an archival dry-adhesive mounting board. Dry-mounted art is smooth, flat, and wrinkle-free.

What kind of camera do you use?

Most of my photos are captured using the Canon EOS R5, a high-resolution digital camera known for its incredible detail and color accuracy. Some images in the collection, however, were shot on older digital cameras or 35mm film. Film photos may include natural grain, which isn’t a flaw—it’s part of their charm. That subtle texture adds a nostalgic, timeless character that beautifully complements the vintage-inspired aesthetic of the work.
