Jock Sturges

Jock Sturges is an American photographer living in Seattle, Washington.

After serving in the Army, Jock earned a Master of Arts degree from the San Francisco Art Institute and studied psychology. Diligently and extensively photographed teenagers on nude beaches in California, France or Ireland. This attracted the attention of law enforcement, but the artistic community of the United States and Europe spoke in defense of the photographer, and in the end he was not charged.

But after that Jock Sturges became popular: he published more than 10 personal albums, as a master of children's and teenage pictures he organized many solo exhibitions and took part in the same number of group exhibitions. However, these exhibitions were often accompanied by high-profile scandals, one of which happened in Russia in 2016: senators accused the photographer of distributing child pornography.
