about Tony

Tony Corbell has had an interesting career. In his more than 40 years in photography, he has photographed some of the world’s most recognized faces including three US presidents, 185 world leaders at the United Nations, fashion models, celebrities, NASA astronauts, and musicians. Coming from his beginnings in a small West Texas town studio, he has photographed and/or taught photographic skills/workshops in more than 20 countries and in all fifty US states. 

Tony is well known for his educational efforts as his published photographic works. He has conducted workshops and seminars to sold-out audiences for more than twenty-five years on the technical aspects of lighting and lighting control. Tony’s books on the topics of light have sold internationally since 2000. He has published four books with three more in the works and has written articles in literally every major photographic publication in the U.S., Japan, the U.K., and China. Tony is most proud of his photographs being featured in coffee-table and instructional books along with those from more than 25 other master photographers.

Today Tony lives and works in Muskogee, Oklahoma alongside his wife, Master Photographer Mandy Lynn. When asked what he is most known for, he usually says “being just about the biggest Beatles fan in the world.”
