Peter Hurley Photography

Peter Hurley's haphazard way of moving through life has had him cruising the 7 seas on a sailboat while training for the Olympics, thrown him in front of a camera modeling for the likes of Polo and A&F and had him recognized as the premier headshot photographer in the world after having over 30,000 faces 3 feet in front of his lens. His prowess as a lensman fueled his desire to educate and he has spoken at Google, Apple, Microsoft and TEDx on the subject of how to be your most photogenic self. His unique ideas on the subject have propelled his YouTube videos to over 8 million views. Canon took notice and brought Peter under their wing by honoring him as one of their coveted Explorers of Light. When he's not taking pictures, Peter spends much of his time educating as the founder of the Headshot Crew, a photographer network that is now home to the largest and most talented group of headshot specialists in the world. Although he never anticipated adding author to his list of accolades, his book, "The Headshot", jumped to the bestseller list in photography immediately after it's highly anticipated release. While he still believes that the twists and turns of his life continue to make it a most interesting journey, he couldn't be more grateful to have picked up a camera along the way. He calls New York City his home where he lives with his beautiful wife and precious twin daughters.
