About Me


Just shot a new campaign for the new pink GHD straighteners which is my profile pic...
about me? ooooh I get to talk about me...?
Previously had my ugly mug in The Face Magazine as part of "The Eastern Bloc Posse", whilst releasing dance tunes and DJ'ing as Flash in Rhythm Foundation and Phase during my "must go out as often as I can" period. We released 4 tracks the most well know being "Let The Whole World Know". The track that plays on this profile is the most recent thing I've written.
Feeling there was a bit more to see than sweaty clubs I changed careers and ended up spending 7 years working on cruise ships as part of the casino management for Royal Caribbean. I've been lucky enough to travel extensively across four continents and finding a camera in the back of a taxi in Miami started the ball rolling as far as the photography is concerned. I really got into photography whilst traveling but after seven years of guaranteed amazing locations (and I know it sounds terrible) travel pictures become a bit boring. I wanted more of a creative challenge and so the leggy ladies came a calling....
So I quit the job, came home and got into fashion photography. Throw a bit of beauty, advertising and fine art photography into the pot and your bang up to date. There's a bit of a cross section of work on here but my fine art work crosses all the boundaries you're asked not to cross when uploading your pictures. So if you want to see those (and a whole load more besides) then you'll have to go to my my website jameslightbown.co.uk
