My name is Michael Anthony, and I am a photographer based out of Okinawa, Japan. I primarily photograph fashion, beauty and portraiture. I am a prior active duty U.S. Marine, which is why I originally came to Okinawa, however, my love for photography and the unique landscape of Okinawa kept me here after I exited the military.
Michael Anthony,日本摄影师。我主拍人像，时尚，和美容照。之前再美国海军工作的原因，我来到冲绳，无论如何，我对摄影的热爱和冲绳独特的风景，当我离开海军后我留在了这里。
Like most photographers, I am self-taught, but unlike most I’ve met personally, I am obsessed with lighting and finding the perfect modifier that fits my style, while being versatile and durable enough for location shoots here on the windy beaches of this island. Fortunately, years ago, I stumble upon the Mola Setti simply through a You Tube video. Of course what caught my eye was the unusual shape of the modifier, but even more intriguing was the light quality that was coming from it! From that point on, I was sold! The Mola Setti was my weapon of choice for many, if not almost all of my photo sessions. Wanting to change things up a bit, last year I decided to go for the Mola Demi ( both Silver and White). Initially, I chose the Mola Silver, for it’s the portability, punchy contrast, accented highlights and fall off that works great for edgy fashion, sports, such as bodybuilding or adding a little extra power when needed on location during high noon. To expand the variation in my tool box, I later purchased the Mola Demi with the white interior for a look that is more subtle and even for modern fashion and beauty that is popular here.
和大多数摄影师一样，我自学，但是不像大多数的人一样，我有自己独特的见解，我执迷于光，观察光并发现完美的附件并且让它适应我的风格。为了适合本地而充满多变和长期的风格，冲绳海岛的多风特点影响了我的作品风格。。幸运的是，几年前，我通过“你土鳖”偶然发现了MOLA SETTI。当然，吸引我的是因为这不同寻常形状的附件，但是它制作出了更加不寻常迷人的的光效！出于这一点，我（购买了它）！MOLA SETTI是我的装备选择之一，几乎是我作品的必备附件。因为我需要一点点改变，去年我决定入手MOLA DEMI（银色和白色）。一开始，我选择MOLA银色，因为他的轻便，干净的对比，独特的高光调子和光衰减，以及对于时尚照，运动，人体塑造，或者再大中午的外景增加一点特殊光力输出的时候，都极为出众。为了拓展我的附件，更因为本地更加流行的敏锐，时尚和美容照片，我稍后购买了MOLA DEMI白色。
My most recent unique and extremely impressive soft light is the Mola Mantti. I really love my other soft lights, but for something like bridal work and location portraiture I really wanted something a bit like a soft light. A beauty dish with super soft and even light across the entire length of the body that I could use on location without it easily flying away, as I often shoot without an assistant. The light coming from it is simply amazing, which I can best describe it as pearlescent – soft 3D like highlights with soft contouring shadows – when it’s used with the opal diffuser and socked relatively close to the subject. Surprisingly, despite the enormous size, the Mantti is easy for me to carry and extremely sturdy even in moderate wind on a heavy stand! I couldn’t be happier with the results!
我近期独特而且超出众的光效就是通过MOLA MANTTI塑造的，我真的很喜欢我的其他附件，但是在诸如婚礼和人像摄影的时候，我真的希望有点柔光。超软光质的雷达罩，环绕主体全身的柔光，能够让我适应全场，而不是让稍纵即逝的关键场景排掉，因为我经常单独摄影没有助理。如果我能够用最好的形容词修饰的话，MOLA的光效让惊异。尤其是当他使用毛玻璃和柔光布的时候，高光的3D柔光并且带着柔软的阴影。惊奇的是，尽管MANTTI的巨型尺寸，对于我来说很容易搬运，而且极为兼顾，甚至于在一般的大风中屹立不倒！这样的结果让我非常满意。
