Darrel Hunter is a London-born and bred professional photographer. Dedicated to art his entire life, Hunter’s keen eye for exploring, discovering, and documenting what lies hidden beneath the status quo makes his work not only innovative and unorthodox but entirely necessary in today’s increasingly diverse and modern society.
Years back, Hunter gave up a lucrative career in finance to pursue his creative passion, working tirelessly to create a name for himself. From using his poignant aesthetic to direct shoots to roaming city streets, capturing everything from joy to angst to the latest fashions, Hunter is a chameleon, breathing life into everything he shoots. Today, his expansive portfolio is full of influential clients from The New York Times to Harpers Baazar to Teen Vogue.
Although he got his start in fashion photography, Hunter’s nuanced, artistic aesthetic quickly propelled him to success within a variety of other photo genres, including travel, reportage, current events, portraits, activism, and beyond.
Using unique angles and unconventional subjects, Hunter’s photography feels truly relevant in today’s changing world. His art pushes boundaries, defies (and defines) trends, and goes well beyond the traditional gender, racial and societal standards that previously defined beauty. In fact, expect to find beauty and inclusivity where you least expect it when viewing Hunter’s photography.
