Craig Parry Photographer

Growing up in Byron Bay along the coastline of Northern NSW, Australia, it was Craig’s parent’s gift of a disposable water proof camera at five years old that set him on the path to his passion.

While most kids his age were reading comics, Craig was immersing himself in early editions of National Geographic and when he turned 13 years old he spent all his savings on a 35mm SLR – a move that ultimately set the course for Craig’s future. Entirely self-taught, Craig worked hard at his craft before making a life-changing decision and becoming a full-time professional photographer in 2004 – a defining moment in Craig’s life.

Today his fine art photography offers a unique insight into the world around us. Primarily focusing upon marine and landscape imagery, subjects are presented in their natural environment in a manner which seeks to connect audiences with the environment. Portraying the obvious as abstract, Craig’s images are engaging and beautiful at the same time. As Sony Ambassador his work regularly sees him travelling to all corners of the globe in pursuit of new adventures and unique encounters to encourage conservation of our oceans, and he can often be found working with the likes of National Geographic, Tourism Australia and Disney.
