Whitney Browne, photographer

Whitney Browne is an experimental and commercial photographer whose work explores themes of movement and gesture as reflection’s of mental states. In addition to working with individual artists and companies, Browne has been an educator for The School at Jacob’s Pillow since 2012.

Browne’s work invites us to join the conversation she is having with her subjects. Her philosophy, “let’s meet at the lens” is an exploration in connection that challenges her subjects to be active in her creative process. She has spent the last decade developing her own experimental movement photography methods, working to build a visual language between photography and performance.

Best known for her involvement in the dance community, she currently works in New York City and Los Angeles. Browne received a BA and BFA from Hunter College in Social Anthropology and Fine Art Photography. In 2020, Browne started Light Language Workshops, which is her independent online teaching practice.
