Perspective Photo

Perspective Photo is the business of Craig Bailey, an independent Boston photographer who specializes in events, performances, portraits and documentary storytelling. He describes himself as a griot who carries a camera, using photography to capture and reflect the stories of the people in front of his lens. His aim is a natural look, and his easy approach helps subjects come across in flattering, natural and appealing images.

Born in Jamaica, New York, Bailey is a longtime resident of Boston’s South End. He has worked as a documentarian for media outlets, periodicals, nonprofit organizations and universities, as well as on his own projects. He relies on knowledge and patience to catch spontaneous expressions, gestures and moments, and he tries to work as an unobtrusive observer. His subjects range from special events and artwork to performing artists and productions.
