Spanning a 20 year career in advertising, still life & people photography, Luke Carter Wilton’s work captures the essence of everyday life with a blend of creativity and authenticity. His work – largely conceptual in nature, is rooted in urban locations, street scenes and environmental portraits that study beauty in the mundane and unique humanistic characteristic of his subjects. His use of light and composition creates visually compelling & original images that evoke a sense of heightened atmosphere and emotion, inviting viewers to pause and appreciate the world around us in new light.
A minimalist at heart, Wilton is inspired in the pursuit of capturing an authentic feeling – distilling a narrative purpose efficiently into a single frame that is simply rendered in a Chiaroscuro tableau. While demonstrating a meticulous and award winning approach to his craft & problem solving, Wilton is happiest experimenting with a diverse range of photographic techniques. Often combining 3D elements & live action photography in a rigorous postproduction workflow that frames his signature granular approach to visual storytelling.
