Derek Henderson

Derek Henderson is one of those kiwis that gets tired of digging for worms everyday and sets off to find out what new and exciting insects the world has to offer him. He has become an internationally respected photographer known mostly for his work in fashion magazines such as Arena Homme Plus, ID, and Vogue and has recently moved from London to Bondi beach in Sydney with his family.

His previous corporate work with huge companies like Coca Cola and Levis, numerous exhibitions and having published two books, ‘The Terrible Boredom of Paradise’ and most recently ‘I Go Down To The River To Pray’, are just not enough for this kiwi. He is currently working with directors from Sydney Theatre Company, Cate Blanchett and her husband Andrew Upton, on a publicity campaign, and is about to shoot the summer campaign for Country Road and a worldwide campaign for 42 Below Vodka…….phew!

Aside from a stunning portfolio, you just have to see his pictures. They are brilliant. Crisp, and sensitive the photographs hold a moment in time be it with the sensitivity to light or the capturing of ones mood. They are rich in kiwi and I am proud to say, just beautiful.
