André Chung is a commercial and editorial photographer, and an award-winning photojournalist. He was awarded the 2021 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Journalism Award for Domestic Photography for his work covering the Black Lives Matter movement in 2020.

André joined in as a guest presenter in our latest DC workshop and absolutely wowed the attendees who kept him answering questions for an additional 30 minutes about his process!

He has created images for a range of clients, including The Washington Post, NBC News, The Atlantic, the NAACP, and Apple. Twice chosen to work on The Official Inaugural Book for President Barack Obama, his work is also in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Institute’s National Museum of African American History and Culture and the History Miami Museum. A founding member of the Iris PhotoCollective, his work has always explored people of color and their relationships to each other and the world.

He married the girl who encouraged him to pick up a camera, and they live in Columbia, Maryland.
