About Brad Booth Photography

Brad Booth is a full-time artist specializing in fine art and commercial photography, videography, and design in outdoor sports, lifestyle, landscapes, exploration, the ocean, and travel visuals and stories.

Commercial Photography

Since graduating from the University of Central Florida with a BA in Business Administration in 2014, Brad has spent most of his professional life living in hostels, vans, cars, boats, tents, and pretty much anything that isn’t a house.  Though this has robbed him of the comfort of daily showers, it has likewise allowed him ample time to explore the world at large and hone his craft to reflect scenery and experiences that are often difficult to put into words.  Through his art, Brad hopes to immortalize timeless moments from his nomadic lifestyle, acknowledging that the privileges afforded to him are only afforded due to a unique combination of circumstantial opportunities, but that these moments nonetheless reflect a shared experience - a need to be awestricken – by people and communities everywhere.  As he ventures from sand to stone to the ocean, from the fender of a Kia Sportage to the cabin of a sailboat, he embarks with the goal of universalizing his adventures for all who wish to experience them.

The work of the Romantic poets and artists of the late 1800s was characterized by raw, unfettered emotion, as well as the futility of the efforts of man in the face of the uncontestable power of nature.  Brad’s subjects often tackle this conflict head on, as illustrated in his landscape photographs and videography, detailing a release from the oppression of an increasingly industrialized world.  Simultaneously, Brad’s work strives for a mastery of a world that is becoming increasingly digitalized, shunning an antiquated need for alienation in order to embrace the natural world in fostering channels via which to communicate the awe that it inspires.
