keira knightley by sarah dunn

Sarah studied photography firstly at art school at age 16 and later at university for a further 3 years . She got into editorial portraiture after working as an freelance assistant for over 3 years in London. It is her love of film that has driven her to concentrate on actors as subjects.

Sarah gained recognition after winning an award for her female fighter series by the Royal Photographic Society and then went on again to get huge recognition by the John Kobal awards for her Kate Winslet portraits. These awards led to her being asked by the National Portrait Gallery in London to shoot entrepreneurs for a specially commissioned exhibition at the gallery.

The National Portrait Gallery now holds many of Sarah’s portraits in their archive, the only gallery to exclusively exhibit her work.

Sarah has photographed the likes of Ewan McGregor, Keira Knightley, Elijah Wood Viggo Mortensen, Samantha Morton, Sydney Pollack and Liv Tyler to name but a few. Her work has been published by British Vogue, The Observer, Harpers & Queen, The Telegraph, Independent review, Esquire magazine, Empire magazine, People Magazine and Entertainment Weekly.

Sarah now lives and works in the USA.
