CIRCE HAMILTON is a British-born portrait photographer creating compelling images for brands, mass media, entrepreneurs, individuals, charitable and grassroots organizations.
Circe’s love of photography began when her mother, an ex-Royal-Ballet-dancer-self-taught photographer, gave her a Nikon FM camera aged twelve years old. Circe learned to develop film and print in the darkroom, helping out on her mother’s portrait sessions of Actors for Spotlight.
Her passion for photography led her to USA, where completed a Photography BFA at Rochester Institute of Technology. Then moved to New York City to assist several photographers including the 1969 Pulitzer Prize winner Eddie Adams. Circe’s career has taken her round the world photographing politicians, celebrities and entrepreneurs including: Dr Maya Angelou, Quincy Jones, Q-Tip, Baz Luhrmann, Deepak Chopra, Gordon Brown, Salman Rushdie, Macy Gray, Dolly Parton, Cyndi Lauper and Diane von Furstenberg.
Circe is a dual-citizen who works both in London and New York. Circe is currently working on a personal project documenting the female form in an interior space.
