              Interview with Commercial Photographer Erik Almas

              PHLEARN has just released part two of their interview with Erik Almas – which continues to be one of my favorite interviews with a photographer recently. It’s refreshing to see an interview that not just explains the technical aspect of shooting and storytelling, but the reasoning behind them. Erik is a great example of technique and creative vision working together.

              Erik is a Norwegian-born commercial and advertising photographer. He moved to the United States at 22 to attend the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, CA. His clients include Toyota, Hyatt, Puma, Pfizer, Microsoft and Nike.

              View part one here.
