Legendary photographer, cinematographer and artist, Stephen Dupont has earned international acclaim for his work documenting people, cultures and environments fast disappearing from our world.

Stephen captures the dignity of his subjects with great intimacy. Working in some of the world’s most dangerous and remote regions, his images contain valuable insight into marginalised people, fragile communities and devastated environments.

Stephen’s work has earned him photography’s most prestigious prizes. He has held major exhibitions globally, and his artist books are held in distinguished collections worldwide. A leading portrait photographer, Stephen is regularly commissioned by renowned international publications and organisations.

Recent Work

Stephen's work hangs in museums and galleries around the world. He has appeared in dozens of publications including The New Yorker, Aperture, Newsweek, Time, Le Figaro and Vanity Fair. He has been awarded many prestigious photographic awards including two Walkleys, a Robert Capa Gold Medal citation, a Bayeux-Calvados War Correspondents Prize and first place in the World Press Photo and Pictures of the Year International.
