Rob Rusling

Using an inquisitive and experimental eye to express a totally individual take on visual culture, Rob has worked alongside global leading brands, artists, and publications to tell his stories from his uniquely crafted point of view and visual lens. A former first assistant to the iconic fashion photographer Nick Knight, Rob has since established his own reputation within the industry as a visual artist who can be counted on to go beyond the expected. After the mysterious loss of sight in one eye early in his career, Rob chose to take on this new challenge as a tool for inspiration, building his new physical vision into his creative vision. Inspired by the greats, Rob finesses and delivers the performance of his craft through encyclopaedic photographic rigour, phenomenal technical skill, all derived from a place of deep intuition and a trust in the visible and the invisible.
