Chris Parkes Photographer Ltd. Bio

Chris’s diverse skill, developed over 23 years of photography, has taken him from shooting in hailstorms in the UK, to recording the experiences of those affected by conflict in north-east Nigeria. His intimate storytelling makes people the agents of their own stories. His eye-catching images have helped a wide range of national and international organisations bring their stories to life.

Born in the United Kingdom, but raised in South Africa during the last decade of apartheid, and a member of the LGBTQIA community, Chris has developed a powerful sense of how inequalities impact the human experience. He sees visual storytelling as the bridge between empathy and change. that photographers have a moral obligation to depict the stories they tell with dignity and that the enduring popularity of photography makes it one of the core mediums in creating a fairer world.

Chris’s imagery often uses strong contrast and controlled lighting and has been published in a wide range of national and international platforms
