Chat with commercial photographer Joey Lawrence

A post by: Darlene HildebrandtPPThis week I found a video interview with photographer Joey Lawrence. When he first hit the photography scene he was only 16, that was from 2006. By 2009 he lived in NYC shooting celebrities, traveling the world, and had an instructional DVD. Who can say they did them all before they were 21?!/PPI have to admit that when I first saw his work, I had two reactions./PI was really, really impressedI was also a little angry!PHere was this kid do what I had done for almost 20 years, and hitting the big time almost over night. I admit, I was a little jealous. But I soon settled in to really get the taste of his work, regardless of his age, and so inspiring me instead of upset about it./PPOriginally from Lindsay Ontario, Canada, Joey L (his name works) moved to New York to further his career. He shoots posters for movies, Hollywood actors and travels the world doing persona projects in India, Indonesia and Africa. Pretty much a dream job of what most photographers want to
