Russell James

One of the world’s top photographers, Russell James hails from Western Australia. Strongly idiosyncratic, his work is heavily influenced by his homeland’s open landscapes and extraordinary light. Dream-like images combine the natural elements of air, sun, earth and water. Applauded for his sexy nudes, exuberant fashion spreads, as well as distinctive portraiture, his trademark style is instantly recognizable. Whether capturing the daily lives of Australia’s aboriginal peoples, or crafting a luxury advertising campaign, this consummate professional leaves nothing to chance…

Russell James’s work has appeared in many influential magazines such as Vogue, Marie Claire and GQ.  In particular, his images in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition have drawn great acclaim. He has also created advertising campaigns for world-class clients such as Victoria’s Secret.
