Olly Burn was born in Essex in 1983 and raised in the picturesque Cotswolds, where he developed a love for the outdoors.

With a natural passion for art and design, he first picked up a camera in his early teens, and has barely put it down since. He received his formal training with a degree in photography at Falmouth College of Arts, then travelled around the world for a year of professional practice. He moved to London and polished his skills as an assistant and retoucher, for some of London’s best photographers.

Nowadays he is able to combine his love of travel and photography, working globally on advertising, fashion and editorial commissions, and shooting in some of the world’s most beautiful and challenging locations.
