Located in: Pearl, MS
Known For: |
StoryMy name is Joe Hennessy, and I am an independent creator based out of Jackson, MS. I began making daily videos on YouTube in December of 2015 and have only taken small breaks here and there as I went.
Since I began creating these daily videos I have been approached by various people for numerous other video projects. I have since begun doing filming wedding videos, highlight videos, promotional videos, and fun creative projects of my own. I don’t have one area that I focus more heavily on than any other, but I would love the opportunity to focus more on my creative projects. I love working on candid and spontaneous video shoots. I feel that when people are candid is when they are their most open and you capture their truest self. |

Appearance
Skills
I feel like I have been given the gift of capturing true moments through video. I have been working as a videographer for almost 2 and half years, and since then I have transitioned from a hobbyist to someone who runs his own video production business.
One of my biggest strengths is organization and planning, but that also leads to my biggest weakness, which is, over planning and not thinking realistically.
Throughout the past 2+ years of work, I have gained main skills in the realm of video production. I am almost always behind the camera, and thus I have gained an excellent knowledge of how to use various camera platforms. I also do all of my own editing and have become very proficient in my editing skills and time management with editing.

Journey
The Creative Journey
I began creative daily videos when my wife and I found out we were pregnant with our first child back in November of 2015. I originally did weekly videos but quickly transitioned into daily videos. Somewhere during my first year of creating my daily videos, someone here in Pearl, Ms saw my videos and liked them so much she hired me to film and edit a promotional video for a local summer camp. Since then I have begun filming weddings and creating ceremony and wedding highlight videos.
I have continued to spread my wings and work in any and all fields involving video production. Recently this past year, my father-in-law and I opened our own video production studio, C&H Enterprise LLC. We have since begun doing video home tours, Land tours using drones, and 3D house tours for real estate companies.
On my own, I have begun to focus more on my own creative pursuits through C&H Enterprise. I plan to expand and add new skills and abilities to my video production abilities.

The Faith Journey
I have grown up in the church. I am originally from Slidell, LA and my church home was Grace Memorial Baptist Church. I always remember being involved in the church. I was saved when I was 6 at my churches VBS summer program.
Since I was saved, I knew that I was living for the glory of God but I have had my struggles.
Shortly after I was saved my father won his battle with brain cancer on October 1, 1997, and has been in the glory of God ever since. When that happened I was lost, I know it sounds crazy that a 6-year-old was questing his faith, but I could not comprehend how God would take a father away from his wife and 3 kids. I would continue to grow in my faith and come to learn that everything is in God's plan and to always trust his plans.
Years went by and I grew in my church and continued to follow his plan, but the devil showed up again on August 29, 2005, when Hurricane Katrina tore through my hometown and destroyed everything I had come to know and love. I was forced to pack up the few things I had left and move to a new home in a place I knew nothing about, Pearl, MS. Again, I question how God could do something like this, destroy the home and everything my family had and force us to move to somewhere so foreign to me. I later would find out God had much bigger plans than I could ever imagine.
I moved to Pearl, MS and hated everything about, but all of that changed when I found my new church home. Mclaurin Heights Baptist church has been such a blessing to me and my family. I became a member in December of 2006, and since that day I graduated high school, went on to get a college degree, find with wife God had planned for me. Looking back at my life, I firmly believe that Iw as heading down a path of destruction before Hurricane Katrina, and in some way that was in God's plan to get me here.
Since becoming a member, I have grown to have a deeper love for God and a better understanding of his plans for me, though I know just a tiny amount of what He has planned. I have since become a church usher, a deacon, and a Sunday school teacher with my wife for young married couples.
I am now a father of two amazing children, and I plan to raise both of them in the glory of God and teach them along the way of his love and that he always has a plan for us no matter how hard things may get.
