Photography – Los Angeles
Chad Finley is a native of West Palm Beach, FL with roots tracing back to the
Bahamas. He always enjoyed the Arts; rather it was drawing, dance, music or
dissecting fashion magazines and/or album art of his favorite artists. Thus, Finley
went on to pursue a higher education in the field of graphic design and
photography at Florida A&M University (FAMU).
At FAMU, he was involved in numerous organizations such as the Marching
“100” band, Graphic Arts Club, and Epsilon Pi Tau (International Honor Society
for Professionals in Technology). Excelling in his academics, Finley received and
accepted two exclusive invitations to intern at, InSpire Magazine in Tallahassee,
FL and VIBE Magazine in New York City.
Upon graduating from Florida A&M University in 2008, Finley relocated to
Atlanta, GA. In Atlanta, he worked for the US department of defense as a
graphic designer and used his downtime to mold his skills as a photographer.
Chad quickly rose to prominence, becoming one of the most sought-out
photographers in the city of Atlanta. Today, Finley is continuing his career as a
photographer and digital designer at the Walt Disney Company while venturing
into the field of film-making and directing. He currently resides in Los Angeles,
CA while splitting his time between Washington, D.C. and New York City.
