A Conversation with David Hobby of Strobist About Lighting

Here’s an interview by Advancing Your Photography‘s Marc Silber, who sat down for a short conversation with photographer David Hobby of Strobist back in 2011. In the 4-minute video above, Hobby offers some thoughts about photographic lighting and talks about some of his most memorable experiences in lighting portrait subjects.

“A lot of my best pictures are mistakes and I’ll fully own up to it,” Hobby says. “Not a mistake — just something that wasn’t what I planned.”
