mobyavid's photostream  

I'm probably best described as a "Semi-Pro" shooter. I've been taking pictures my whole life, but the last 7 years it really started becoming more than just a hobby.

I work in entertainment and my job requires that I occasionally shoot celebrities. The turning point was getting a photo published in People magazine. I've since been advancing my skills and the results have improved greatly.

In fact my photostream is an evolution of my shooting abilities and my understanding of light and its properties. You can see a definitive point when my shooting style changed from directive flat light to diffuse, soft light.

I'm heavily influenced by the work of Joe McNally.

Follow me on Twitter if you'd like-- @mobyavid When something interesting happens or I update my blog, that's a good place to find out.
