From shooting Architecture to Portraits to Objects to Land and
Cityscapes, Taylor seems to photograph a little bit of everything! He
also has a background in film and video! As seen on his website, "Karl Taylor has been a professional
photographer for over 20 years and has traveled the globe on assignments
for some of the world’s most successful companies. Unusually
for an advertising & commercial photographer Karl is what he calls
‘multi-disciplined’. Having started his career in photojournalism he is
comfortable and actively enjoys shooting across a range of genres.
Karl’s ethos is that ‘variety is the spice of life’ and that the visual
philosophies for creating effective images are universal" (Taylor, web).

Karl Taylor's interest in photography started out at the young age of 17. He worked two different jobs to save money to buy the equipment. Taylor worked as a photojournalist in South East Asia in his early twenties. His primary focus while there was photographing the indigenous people of the country and his photographs were published in several newspapers and magazines throughout the area. Once he returned back to England, he opened up his own studio and began working as a commercial photographer. Taylor also started his own photography school called, "Karl Taylor Masterclass".
