Who are you, and where in New Jersey are you from?
My name is Anthony Carbone. I grew up and currently reside in Cumberland County NJ. I have always enjoyed taking landscape photos and in the past year I have ventured into some portrait work.
What are the three best spots for photography in New Jersey, and why?
Fortescue Beach is a great spot for sunset shots. It is my most favorite place to visit. Check out more of Cumberland County in our Scavenger Hunt.
I mainly use my Canon Rebel T3i with the 18-135mm nano USM Lens. I also have a Rebel T6 and a 50D that I use periodically. I also have 55-250mm and 10-18mm lenses that I use for certain shots.
What's your dream piece of gear? Think big!
A Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4x to get those really far shots.
What's one bucket list photo of New Jersey you haven't gotten yet?
Be spontaneous. Shoot everything. Try different camera settings. Take the shot even if you think the photo wont turn out well. I have surprised myself after the day is over when I check out the photos.
What's your favorite part of being a photographer?
Just being out in nature and capturing moments I can look back on. The adventure of getting the shots is always fun. too.
