Adrian Brown

Here’s a dangerous question: do you love your work?? I asked my mentor that question years ago when I was just starting out, and only recently I’ve come to understand why it stopped him in his tracks. Up until recently, my work reflected a particular visual brand: ‘the backlit, happy, smiling lifestyle guy’. I’m really good at it and I’ve helped many clients like Tourism Australia, PayPal, Commonwealth Bank, Cochlear, Johnson & Johnson to set the tone for their brand. I’ve also honed my photographic and directorial skills along the way. Achieved in environments where delivering commercial projects is an art form in itself. Now I’m looking for projects I’d walk over hot coals to work on: clients secure in their vision (even if it’s just asking me for mine) and willing to take a risk; concepts that treat audiences as capable of interpreting a more complex vision of humanity; stories that run emotionally deeper; or beautiful moments that truly elevate the heart (regardless of how fleeting it may be). Madebybrown.com is not just about sharing with you what I’ve created… it’s more forward-looking and is designed for you to get to know me, my loves, and what makes me tick. Hopefully, you’ll appreciate the potential in allowing me to collaborate on your brand’s story. I invite you to challenge me.

Peter Tarasiuk

Hi, I’m Pete. I am a photographer based in Melbourne, Australia. A love for story telling, being constantly curious and always searching for the next adventure has lead me to shoot for various editorial and advertising clients both in Australia and internationally. My work focuses heavily on photographing people and crosses over to the lifestyle areas of travel, food and interiors. I am equally comfortable photographing in a tiny town in Eastern Europe as I am directing large-scale advertising shoots. I’d love to hear from you, please get in touch.

Good at creating the moment, Crabb's story telling style sees him shooting active lifestyle, property, hotel, business based projects. He is comfortable being sent anywhere in the world (or around the corner) to create suites of images encapsulating a company or organisations activities and message. Although carefully planned and executed his images often have the feel of candid moments. His understanding and clever use of light, as well as an ability to form a good rapport with his subject forms the basis for his graphic and engaging images.

My clients tell me that they love the process of being photographed by me, because I'm able to make the process quite enjoyable. I love using light to create mood and drama, be it in the studio or out in the natural or urban environment. My work has been published in BLLNR magazine, Straits Times, Conde Nast Traveller India, Vogue India, Gulf News, and Entrepreneur Magazine amongst other publications.

Lee Starnes

Lee travels, eats and tells stories. Currently based in Ho Chi Minh City aka Saigon, Vietnam he shoots food, travel stories as well as commercial product photography. Travel and food are both about forming bonds and sharing stories. Traditions as old as humanity. Working in the food and beverage industry for over a decade gives him a deep appreciation of breaking bread, story telling, and the power of sharing cultures through food and travel. He now takes the same approach to make use of the camera to help tell these stories and bring people closer together. Using the visual medium of photography has given him the opportunity to share experiences and build relationships with people all over the world, and it's this common respect and curiosity that forms the backbone of his work. That, and he’s always keen for a bowl of noodles and a cold beer with strangers and friends alike.

Bruce Vincentiis

I am an architecture and interiors photographer based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, specializing in luxury resort photography.

I love to travel to out of the way locations and solving complex puzzles. I am happiest when I am in a desert, jungle, or remote island, being one with nature and creating something beautiful.

As a freelancer, I've produced video content and photographed for advertising, editorial, and documentary projects and I've edited, written and designed for fine art photography books, blogs, and magazines. At the core, I am an explorer. I love to be going somewhere. And that includes while I’m creating work. Whether it’s carrying gear for weeks across the desert, or filming from a rope 1000 feet off the ground, snowshoeing in or snowboarding out, it’s the love of my work and these adventures that keeps me doing this. I love it when the job offers far flung adventure and I'm quick to pick up a challenge. Adaptable skills and a sense of the authentic image have been the core of imagery and I feel my ability​ to learn and adapt quickly is one of my greatest assets.

Christopher Jue

I was born and raised in sunny Southern California, went to IT school, and graduated with a B.S. in Network and Communications Management. I worked in the IT industry in California and Japan for a short time when I realized this is not for me. The decision to leave that secure full-time job in IT, even when more money was offered to stay, was a choice that not many people would probably endeavor. I wanted a life and that's what photography has given me. My passion for pictures turned into a career that I never thought possible in a foreign country that still amuses and confuses me until this day. I'm surrounded by wonderful people all over the world and often find myself getting on planes more than usual, creating pictures for myself and viewers like you. Believe it or not, but I suck at Photoshop, which is why my work is, what it is. Just clean, simple and straightforward storytelling. I guess you could say I'm most regarded as being a photographer rather than a digital artist.

Justin Szeremeta (StudioSZ Photo)

I’m a architectural photographer and filmmaker based in Shanghai, China focusing on architecture and interiors. I grew up on the sunny Gulf coast of Florida before eventually making my way west to begin my career as an architect in San Francisco. That career took me to Asia where I spent over a decade designing and delivering large-scale commercial projects before transitioning into photography. Having been there myself, I have a deep understanding of the immense effort it often takes to bring a stunning piece of architecture through to completion. I try to see myself as an extension of your team, tasked with capturing your project in a way that showcases its best attributes, with the ultimate goal of creating a set of images that tells a compelling story. I also regularly write for APAlmanac, the best online resource for architectural photographers in the world.
