JEREMIAH WATT

In a world full of over-sensitized, manicured imagery, Jeremiah "Miah" Watt’s work stands out. His portfolio is beautifully raw and gritty. There’s no posing or redoes. No fake moments. No reading between the lines. What you see is what you get. Because “authenticity” is a word tossed around and around in marketing and advertising, it eventually loses its meaning. Photoshoots and content creation become contrived versions of what would have been spontaneous human moments and stories. But what separates Miah’s work from the rest is his bread and butter: capturing and sharing with the world off-the-cuff, unscripted experiences. And all it takes is one look at his portfolio — including barbershop scenes in the Middle East to first ascents in Utah — to know Miah’s style to be true. To make these images possible, Miah pursues a creative storyteller approach to photography. By being a person involved in the adventure at hand, rather than someone looking from the outside in, the photographer is able to capture candid moments that would otherwise be lost in time.
