42 Branded announce the latest addition to its talented roster: Katie Burdon, a visionary director-photographer whose work redefines the artistry of visual storytelling.
With roots in Cornwall and now based in London, Burdon brings a fresh perspective and an unwavering focus on the female gaze that resonates deeply within her photography and film.
Burdon’s artistic voice is characterised by a profound sense of intimacy, celebrating the human condition in all its diverse forms. Her unique style merges striking colour palettes with compelling narratives, often infused with surreal undertones that invite curiosity and introspection. By exploring the intricacies of emotion and experience, she crafts visually captivating stories that engage and inspire audiences.
“We are excited to have Katie join the 42 Branded family, signed to both 42 Branded and our renowned photographer’s agency Probation,” said Clancie Brennan, Managing Director at 42 Branded. “Her dedication to highlighting the female perspective and her innovative approach to visual storytelling aligns perfectly with our mission to create compelling content that resonates on many levels. We believe her artistic vision will elevate our offerings and make a profound impact for our clients.”
Burdon’s portfolio is a testament to her commitment to authenticity and creativity. Her work has been featured in prominent exhibitions (Embracing Diversity at Photo Vogue Festival, Saatchi Art Rising Stars, Tappan LA) and publications (Vogue Italia, It’s Nice That, British Journal of Photography) as well as winning the Young Directors Award, Cannes 2024 for Best Charity Commercial. As she embarks on this new chapter with 42 Branded, she looks forward to collaborating with brands that share her passion for inclusive and meaningful storytelling.
“I am thrilled to join 42 Branded Production,” said Burdon. “Their commitment to pushing creative boundaries and exploring innovative narratives is something I greatly admire. I’m eager to collaborate with clients who are looking to make a statement and connect with their audiences on a deeper level.”
As 42 Branded continues to grow its creative capabilities, representing directing talent across commercial and entertainment and placing brands at the forefront of popular culture like James Hawes (Slow Horses), Eran Creevy (The Gentlemen), Daisy-May Hudson (Lollipop), and Martin Webb (Drive to Survive), the addition of Burdon is indicative of its commitment to nurturing diverse talent and promoting unique voices within the industry. Her artistic integrity and visionary approach will undoubtedly help pave new paths for compelling brand narratives.
