Dean Northcott has had a very busy and successful year with both his personal and commissioned work. His fresh, vibrant new personal style saw him as a finalist at the 2019 AOP awards and a winner at the 2019 Colour Awards. This led to exciting commissions in his commercial work with advertising shoots for O2 Arena, HM Government and Hendrick’s Gin, amongst others.

Born in New Zealand, Dean was raised on a diet of sport, barbeques and beach. After several years of world travel in his early 20s during which he developed his sense of aesthetics, he arrived camera-in-hand in London in the early 90s and went on to study photography at LCP.

A former semi-pro rugby player, a third dan black-belt in karate and marathon runner, sport is at the epicentre of Dean's entire life and this is exemplified in the mood and texture of his work.
