Ben Parks grew up in the Northwest of England, where his inspiration for Photography began. With a vibrant local scene juxtapost to the semi rural setting informing his aesthetic at a young age before moving to the south coast, where he started his career focusing on taking an analogue approach to pictures of friends, Skateboarders and the local music community which led to his first commissions out of Art school.
He soon turned his attention to fashion & Portrait photography and has brought his relaxed and immediate photographic style to numerous publications and projects including EXIT, GQ, Vogue & Commercial Clients including Zara and Erdem.
Inspired by nature and the great possibilities and adventures of life and exploration, Ben's work captures the moments of joy we all experience in the world around us while always bringing an intimate and refreshing sense of calmness to his approach at capturing his subjects and their personalities.
Based in London. He lives with his wife and young son.
