Sean Tucker is a British photographer, filmmaker, author and speaker. Born in the UK, he grew up mostly in Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Botswana and South Africa, where he first worked as a pastor. He did not work as a photographer until he was about 30, and his first full-time job in photography was as a food and product photographer for the kitchenware company Yuppiechef.
He has since told stories for charities and multinational companies in more than 20 countries. In 2015 he started a YouTube channel about photography and the creative life, which now has more than half a million subscribers. He works in street photography, portraiture, documentary and still life, and light and shadow are at the heart of his street pictures.
For several years he gathered each year’s work into a limited, self-published book of 90 photographs, 45 in black and white and 45 in color, such as Collection III with his pictures from 2019. In 2021 he published The Meaning in the Making, a philosophy for the creative life that also draws on his psychology degree. He lives in Yorkshire.
