About

My photography holds up a mirror to economies of place and time, and can be viewed as a meditation on nature, structures, and people. I explore our relationship to the foreign, deprived, and the ‘other’. While some of my work engages indirectly with victims of crises, and exploitation, in places such as Central America and the Middle East, my intent is not reducible to so-called ‘poverty journalism’ but rather would more accurately be considered a spiritual quest to document life as it is, through the filter of my mind and the lens of my eyes. My work provides a window into different cultures and lifestyles that is at times a documentation of the encounter between a subject’s energy and myself.

I am a writer/director, with photography and editing experience, who is capable of specializing in one or performing multiple of the aforementioned roles. I am proficient in Davinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, and Photoshop. I am located in Los Angeles and also available to work in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I am from. I am happy to travel to work anywhere in the world. My rate is negotiable depending on the scale of the project. Feel free contact me for collaborations at pkmaguire@gmail.com.
