Jeremy Skirrow

I am a documentary photographer from Canberra, Australia, now based in Medellín, Colombia. Working with both film and digital formats, I focus on capturing social and economic stories, using bold, vibrant colour to bring my subjects to life.

With a background in economics and five years of experience in finance, I bring a unique perspective to my work, exploring themes of inequality, wealth disparities, and global economic dynamics. This foundation has deepened my interest in storytelling, helping me craft narratives that highlight the human side of complex social and economic issues around the world.

Beyond my documentary work, I explore various genres, including street photography, travel, architecture, and still life. These additional styles are a testament to my fascination with the quiet poetry of everyday life, where ordinary moments and places reveal extraordinary beauty and complexity.

My work has been featured in exhibitions in Jakarta and Melbourne, and published in Night Timin’ magazine, Docu Magazine, and by brands like Skyscanner and Wanderlust Magazine. One of my most meaningful projects was documenting the lives of Venezuelan workers in Medellín, which offered a powerful reflection on resilience and shared humanity.

I am committed to uncovering untold stories with respect and authenticity, shedding light on global issues often overlooked. I am open to collaborations, commissions, and assignments with publications and organisations seeking impactful visual storytelling.
