He is commissioned to do portrait work, advertising and editorial assignments.Living the American Dream"My dream was simple. It did not entail living an elaborate lifestyle full of luxury, fame or power. My dream was to create the richness of life through the simplicity of art—which, ultimately, for me, took shape through the lens of my camera.My photography has truly led me to places I never thought possible. As a young man walking the streets of Rome, I could have never imagined that I would one day photograph the greatest musician of our generation—Michael Jackson. It occurred to me that Jackson’s dream could have been just as simple as mine. Coming from a small town in Indiana, Jackson found his artistic talent at a very young age. Little might he have known that he would eventually have such a global impact with his art. With my photographs, I hope to keep Jackson’s legacy alive. I hope to paint an intimate portrait of my experience with Jackson and his fascinating world that he so graciously invited me to capture and share with you all. Today, I think of yesterday while making history for tomorrow."— Hamid Moslehi
