TRENT MITCHELL
Trent Mitchell passionately travels far and wide for the perfect moment, location and light to make his pictures.

A highly adaptable photographer, he does not see himself as bound to one genre of image-making.
Mitchell has an extensive list of extremely happy, varied clients that not only love his work but foster and evolve it into their vision and market.
