Ross Brown
Auckland - photographers
Born, and currently based in New Zealand, Ross Brown knew he wanted to be a photographer from a very early age.
His work has a very distinct style and strong emotive quality that can be largely attributed to his mastery of light and form, combined with a sensitivity to, and perceptiveness of, his subject matter. His images are classical, inherently elegant and meticulous in detail, possessing a rich cinematic quality.
Ross has a high degree of technical ability and is particularly skilled at producing multiple composite images. He believes every image should be finely crafted and likes to work closely with his retouchers in order to follow a job through to completion.
Ross' images have won numerous international awards and have been featured in many magazines and journals. For several years now he has been rated one of the top 200 Photographers worldwide by Lurzer's Archive.
Ross is represented in New Zealand by Match Photographers and in New York by Greenhouse Reps.
