Introduction
Like the Hudson River landscape painters before him, Joseph Squillante is attracted to the beauty and romance of the river and its surrounding landscape. His talent and love for the Hudson enable him to distill the spirit of this national treasure. The River’s visual splendor has provided him endless inspiration for more than 40 years.
This commitment has led him and his wife, Carol Capobianco, to found the Hudson River School of Photography and to celebrate its magnificence through workshops, photography presentations, in-classroom talks, lessons, exhibitions and note card and prints. By encouraging people to get closer to the river, Joseph fosters public awareness of the river’s beauty.
Photography is an ideal medium to share this vision; it is powerful and accessible – just as is the Hudson
“Go to the river with your camera and seek out its wonders,” Joseph urges.
