Peter Stanton is a Sydney based photographer with a very unique view on modern culture.

​

​Through the rich combination of lifestyle, his history as a musician and classic elements of fine art sensibilities, he has created a unique style that is evocative, rich, challenging and at times extremely personal.

​

​Stanton’s work has appeared on magazine covers, in promotional material and he is currently in the process of planning his second solo exhibition "Sirens and Dust". Even Motley Crue chose to use one of his images in their slide show for 'Girls Girls Girls'.

​

​His art and lifestyle is inextricably connected, which adds a more personal energy to each image. One cannot exist without the other. The viewer needs to be moved, confronted and challenged in some way by each image, rather than admired from a purely aesthetic standpoint.

​

​His work draws from influences as diverse as the European masters, the neo romantic era to the fine art of Helmut Newton, Ellen Von Unwerth, David Bailey and Annie Leibovitz with a healthy sprinkle of satire and pulp thrown in for good measure.

​

​Working both in the studio and on grand locations, Stanton uses his tools more intuitively to compliment the energy of a concept best, rather than follow strict technical rules. This more instinctive approach is what primarily led to the evolution of his signature style.

​

​In order to expand further, Stanton aims to hone his skill to the professional level suitable for an international market. He seeks to further challenge his boundaries, refining his techniques and to continue to work with interesting new people that will invest in his long term vision.

​

​​Stanton’s main goal is for his vision to become world renowned and recognisable. To stand proudly on a world stage and to ultimately evolve into the best photographer possible. One thing's for certain, he's here to stay.
