James Parsons - London Based International Photographer
I’m James (or JP).
I work predominantly in the sport, travel and culture industries, focusing on documenting events with creative imagery. If I’m not shooting for clients, I’m walking around cities shooting Street (see personal).
If you’ve got a project in mind, or want to just chat photography, i’d love to hear from you at James@backdrop.london.
Looking forward to talking,
JP

More about me:
Happiest moment:
Handing in my notice at my job in The City to pursue photography full-time. It’s been a wild ride since.
What’s my edge?:
I think playing high-level sports has helped me understand the genuine experience of sports stars, allowing me to pick up on the smaller, more captivating moments to capture.
My weekends look like this:
Creating YouTube videos about the Art of photography. Currently, there are 17,500 of us.
3 dream dinner guests:
Marcus Aurelius, Naval Ravikant, + Chris Williamson (and video guy Dean).
