A course by Phil Fisk
Phil Frisk is a photographer and filmmaker based in London with over 20 years of experience. He studied sociology and mass media at Goldsmiths, University of London, and originally wanted to be a writer before being introduced to photography.

From there, Phil progressed into shooting portraits for magazines and marketing campaigns for companies like SKY TV, ITV, and the BBC. He has worked on titles including Intergalactic, Trip to Spain, and Lucky Man, and shot celebrities like Quentin Tarantino, Toby Jones, and Jamie Oliver. Phil has also won multiple AOP Awards for his work.
