More about Anthony D....
What do you love about your job?
The camera offers me doors into parts of the world and experiences I might never have know of, let alone seen. And it has given me the opportunity to meet any number of interesting people. I enjoy the challenge making a good photo in the tiny space of time that events allow, of trying to see and capture the special moment, of finding just the right angle in the right light - and of being just lucky enough to have all the pieces fall into place at the moment I press the shutter.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
When shooting someone's event, apart from the formal portraits, my job is to record and not impose myself - I try to be the eye and memory of the moment. At other times, when people ask for direction, I can offer some tips on posing or in the case of engagement shoots some playful scenarios to act out - in any case I try capture the best aspects of the person as they are.

A fun fact about this photographer
I would fish everyday if I could - fly fish or bait fish, from shore or boat, waist deep wading in warm water - a fish pulling drag is always a thrill.
