Sydney - photographers
Graham Shearer has been a fashion photographer for 30 years. During this time he has risen to the top of his profession in Australia, shooting for all the leading fashion magazines including Vogue, Harper's Bazaar and Marie Claire. His advertising clients include Country Road, David Jones, Seafolly, Sheridan, Ella Baché, De Beers, L’Oréal and the Viceroy Hotel Group. He has had a 20 year long relationship with the underwear brand Elle Macpherson Intimates and has photographed Elle Macpherson around the world at various stages of her career.
For seven years Graham was based in Paris where he achieved an equal success. As a regular contributor to French publications such as Madame Figaro, he was able to travel extensively photographing fashion editorials in exotic locations around the world.
Graham’s work is renowned for his ability to capture not only the essential beauty of the female (and male) models he photographs, but also the beauty and the significance of the location or environment in which they are situated. Since departing Australia four years ago, he has lived in LA where he is in great demand as a celebrity photographer. He also spent time in the South of France and New York, where he still has an agent. Graham recently returned to Sydney and plans to remain there for the coming years.
Graham is represented by The Names Agency.
