Jo Panasiuk (they/them) is a queer, non-binary photographer whose work captures both the silent poetry of wild places and the fleeting beauty of the everyday. Based out of Toronto, Jo creates cinematic, story-driven images that explore the intersection of solitude, wilderness, and human presence.
With an Honours Bachelor of Photography from Sheridan College, Jo is a multi-faceted artist comfortable both in and out of the studio. Their photography ranges from misty forests and rugged coastlines to quiet moments found in familiar places.
Jo is inspired by the mundane magic of daily life and is drawn to projects that let them get their hands dirty. Whether experimenting with light or humming through a shoot, they bring a grounded, playful energy to everything they do — inviting viewers to pause, wander, and see the world a little differently.
