Joseph Shymanski was a father of two known for his photography sold at Washington, DC's Eastern Market.

A Pennsylvania man has been arrested in connection with the murder of a prominent Washington, D.C., photographer, who was reported missing from Huntingtown, Maryland, on Sunday.

Calvert County officials in Maryland on Thursday announced the arrest of Brandon R. Holbrook, 47 of Reedsville, Pennsylvania, in connection to the murder of Joseph Anthony Shymanski, a 51-year-old father of two known for his photography that he sold at a weekly outdoor market on Washington, D.C.'s Capitol Hill.

After executing "an extensive search warrant" on Monday at Shymanski's residence in Huntingtown, investigators suspected foul play and identified their suspect.
