Nov 2012

Jamie Baker

London

With a global client list ranging from The Sunday Times to i-D, from Microsoft to Puma and from BMW to the BBC, Jamie Baker has in his diverse 17-year career blazed a distinctive trail in every area of photography he has explored. Known for dynamically composed, stunningly lit images, his portraiture, reportage and iconic brand campaigns alike spring from a searching storyteller’s eye.

Swiftly making his mark with exuberant, sexy images from the 1990's dance music revolution’s front line, London-based Jamie has further honed his hallmarks - elegantly structured images buoyed by artistic, imaginative lighting - in prestigious commercial and editorial fashion commissions.

Meanwhile, new challenges including directing campaign films, studio and location celebrity portraits and fine art exhibitions showcasing his personal work have seen him further explore photography’s less-expected narrative possibilities. This guiding fascination today enriches Jamie's increasingly high-profile portraiture in meticulously constructed conceptual approaches and subtly subtextual twists.
