“It takes any good young photographer at least three to five years to develop their own viewpoint.”
Mr. David Leslie Anthony started shooting in 1989 and worked himself to the top of the fashion industry. He now works for clients such as Calvin Klein, Cosmopolitan and Harpers Bazar. David moved from NYC to Los Angeles last year. Co-founder of Viewbook, Alrik Swagerman calls him in his hotel room in Chicago, the city where he moved to just a week ago and talks with David about cities, hotels, approaching clients, social media and of course portfolio websites. David gives his unvarnished view and valuable tips for anyone who wants to succeed in the incredibly competitive fashion industry.

His website is one of the first I noticed when viewing the Examples section in viewbook. Is everything on his site possible through viewbook or is it specially coded in ways that normal users can’t do themselves?
His work is excellent.

When i publish a viewbook linkinto a craigs list ad it allows the link to open but after view the page you cant go back to the craigs list ad. It stay on the viewbook page. It only happens when the suffix album and title is added to the end of the link. This does not happen with other links I place in a craigs ad, just viewbook links. Can you help?
