Cameron Brown (American, b. 1988) is a documentary photographer whose work delves into the subtle nuances and ephemeral moments of everyday life. Drawing inspiration from the ‘fly-on-the-wall’ approach of iconic street and documentary photographers of the 1950s, Cameron’s ethos is to preserve the authenticity of each scene, capturing the unembellished truth without intrusion.

His photographic journey began in late 2017 as a form of creative therapy following the passing of his mother, which has profoundly shaped his artistic vision. Since losing his mother, he finds it therapeutic to document natural interactions between families in photos. Cameron holds a BA in Mass Media Communication with a focus on advertising from Carlow University.

Hi, I’m Jaye! I run Jaye Frances Imagery—a queer, and POC owned photography business! I love celebrating diversity and creating a comfortable space to get photos taken. I’m always down to have a good time and make photos not painful, the way they should be.
