Great image is all within the composition. Fortunately for Anthony Tilghman, the camera is a mere tool when sculpting concepts that lead to great marketing and publicity masterpieces. Growing up in Washington, DC put Tilghman in front of an arena teeming to the brim with his visions of becoming a successful entrepreneur. After graduating high school, the world of marketing and advertising seemed to be an inevitable place to reside with Tilghman stepping into the arena with Metro Media, a high-end public relations and advertising firm utilized by major television and other established clients. It was there that he positioned himself to be one of the most indispensable entities to the Washington, DC area. Then it clicked. Incorporating photography. With the growing need for image placement and brand identity for rising businesses due to the speed of the expanding social media market, Tilghman took the opportunity to establish Anthony Tighlman Enterprises.
