Los Angeles
Based in Los Angeles, Robert Todd Williamson is a leading celebrity photographer. His work has been published in WWD, Rolling Stone, People, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Entertainment Weekly, Time, Cosmopolitan, USA Today, Instyle and hundreds of other publications around the world.
Todd graduated from Hobart College with a major in Economics in 1993. After a successful career on Wall Street, he formed Apple Ridge Films, a multimedia production house. It was a client's need for stills that first put a camera in his hand, and he has since never put it down. Todd has been a contributor to Wireimage since 2004.
He furthered his understanding of publishing client needs as founder/publisher and lead photographer for h Magazine for over four years, where he developed a vast understanding of layout requirements along with a critical eye.
Todd was the house photographer who welcomed the Duke and Dutchess of Cambridge for their LA events, as well as the go-to house photographer for BAFTA's Brits to Watch and Variety's Venture Capital and New Media Summit.
