Adam Ferguson was born and grew up in New South Wales, Australia. He received a Bachelor of Photography from Australia’s Griffith University in 2004, and in 2006 he interned with VII Photo Agency in Paris going on to work as Gary Knight’s assistant. In 2007 Adam moved to New Delhi, India, where he is currently based, working as freelance photographer covering South Asia.
Adam’s work has explored the many tensions, both social and political, that undermine the images of an economically booming India. Recently, he has focused on the war in Afghanistan.
Adam’s photographs have been published internationally by Time Magazine, The New York Times, Vanity Fair, Newsweek, The Wall Street Journal, Stern, The Chicago Tribune, Courrier International, The Financial Times Magazine, The Sydney Morning Herald, UNICEF and Human Rights Watch.
In 2009 he was selected as one of the Photo District News 30 Emerging Photographers to Watch and joined the VII Mentor Program.
Created to provide training, education and networking to emerging photographers and students who normally would not be able to afford workshops, FPW is a grassroots workshop series held in inspiring and photographically challenging global locations.
