Benedict Redgrove was born near Reading, Berkshire, UK.

After leaving art college, Redgrove spent his early career at various studios honing his creative talent in graphics and design whilst also working with photography, eventually moving to London to immerse himself fully in photography and later film.

Benedict has a lifelong fascination with innovation and industry, and is a dedicated proponent of good design, modernism and utilitarianism. He has a love for physical, environmental and technological extremes. His love of sci-fi and space exploration has intuitively led him to capturing projects and objects at their most cutting edge. He has created an aesthetic of photography that is clean, pure and devoid of any miscellaneous information, winning him acclaim and numerous awards.

Redgrove has amassed a following and client base from some of the most advanced companies in the world, granting him access to secret and often hidden divisions at organisations such as NASA, European Space Agency, British Aerospace, Lockheed Martin Skunk Works, the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defence to name but a few.

Whether capturing U-2 reconnaissance pilots and stealth planes, virologists working on Ebola and Covid virus, the Navy Bomb Disposal or spending time documenting the Royal Marines, Benedict strives to capture the scope and scale of advancements, invoking an emotional response to the objects and places and asking what they mean to us as human beings.

A career spent recording the pioneering technology of human endeavours has produced a photographic art form that gives viewers a window into an often unseen world.

He currently lives in London, dividing his time for work and family between London, Rome and USA.
