Ethan Hickerson is a freelance editorial and commercial photographer
working throughout the Mid-Atlantic and New York.
He explores the infinite interactions of light, material, and human presence—seeking out expressive moments from subtle communications that elevate everyday scenes. He draws inspiration from both natural light and surreal visual references, often blending the two to create iconic, atmospheric imagery.
Hickerson has been a visiting artist and lecturer at universities, sharing insight into portraiture, commercial practice, and building a cohesive portfolio. In recent years, he’s co-founded a photographer’s meet-up in Richmond, VA—a space for sharing work, ideas, and industry knowledge.
He is available for editorial and commercial assignments.
