011 - The Professional [Photographer]

Between my friend Anthony Collins and I, we have over 40 years of photography experience...so, we sat down to discuss what makes someone a "professional" photographer. Is it as simple as charging money for photography work? Does your gear make you a professional? About Anthony Collins "I am a New York City-based photographer and I specialize in editorial and assignment photography, shooting nationally and internationally for Fortune 500 companies, advertising agencies, and design firms of all sizes. Using my background in electrical engineering and my great love of art I strive to deliver strong, dynamic, and beautiful images. I love working with clients of all kinds, whether they are the board of directors or the members of a creative team. I am project-focused, technically flexible, and efficient. Most importantly, I am sensitive to my clients needs at all times. In my twenty years of experience I have traveled with my camera to more than forty countries—from the Arctic Circle to the Great Barrier Reef. If you need a photographer to hang out of a helicopter or hang in a boardroom, I'm the one you want!"
