Brandon Clifton is an Atlanta-based portrait and lifestyle photographer with a cinematic eye and a passion for telling the stories that need to be told.

With a keen understanding of the way narratives work to help change the way we see the world around us, it’s no surprise to see him creating content for such a diverse range of clients spanning from government agencies and nonprofits to editorial publications and apparel brands.

Select clients include: The White House, American Red Cross, World Health Organization, CDC, Caliburn International, Georgia State Capitol, The Atlantan Magazine, Jezebel, Red Bulletin, Goodwill, Tanner Healthcare, The Giving Kitchen, and JDX Apparel.

"I think I speak for everyone when I say the world wasn't prepared for the coronavirus and what was to unfold in the following months. 2020 as a whole was otherworldly, but March in particular was the start of it all for most Americans. This was when state and federal governments enacted shutdowns, masks mandates, and curfews. During all the chaos, I set out to do a photo series on first responders and healthcare workers. The images were later selected to be in an advertorial for a brand new magazine that would be sent to over one million people nationwide. 

Photography isn't just a job for me. It's a way to bring awareness to issues, particular messaging for brands, and a way to bring us all together in a world that needs unity now more than ever. I'm an Atlanta based photographer and stories are the reason I set out to pursue this career. Stories can change the way we view the world around us and is why I've devoted my career to the pursuit of storytelling."
