Simon Upton

Simon is a photographer with more than thirty-five years of published work to his credit. He travels the world capturing people and their homes on behalf of the major publishing houses, in addition to working on his own photographic projects. He was educated at Bryanston and Charterhouse and finished his studies at West Surrey Art School, where he did a photography degree, focusing on portraits and interiors. His big break came with the publication of his first article in the highly acclaimed interiors magazine, The World of Interiors, in 1989 and he now contributes regularly to a wide range of international magazines and newspapers including The World of Interiors, Vogue, Vanity Fair, Architectural Digest, Elle Décor, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Frederic, Veranda, Galerie, Town & Country, House & Garden, Harpers Bazaar and Tatler.

Simon has also provided the photography for a variety of book projects that include Storage by Mitchell Beazley, Living National Treasures by Pavilion, Pure Country and Great Escapes by Ryland, Peters & Small, Italian Style by Frances Lincoln, Living in London by Flammarion, and London Interiors by Benedikt Taschen. Other books published over the past few years with Jacqui Small Publishing include Ancient & Modern, Inspirational Interiors, A Passion for Collecting, Country, Country Colour, Set with Style, and Nicky Haslam’s Folly de Grandeur, as well as Chatsworth, Portrait of a House by Frances Lincoln. More recently Simon has collaborated with Flora Soames on her book The One Day Box, Ned Lambton on Villa Cetinale and Katia Lysy and Benedetta Origo on La Foce: Paradise in Tuscany, all published by Rizzoli.

In 2021, his first personal monograph New York Interiors was published by Vendome Press, followed in 2023 by London Living, Town & Country. He is now working on his first retrospective A-Z Interiors which will be published by Rizzoli
in September 2026.

Simon’s first exhibition in 2000 at Coskun Fine Art in London was met with critical acclaim. His first American exhibition opened in October 2009 at the M Showroom, St Helena in California, while his most recent exhibition of personal work opened at a show in London in October 2012. In addition to an impressive list of the world’s top interior designers and architects, Simon also collaborates regularly with private individuals on personal projects.

This is not your typical virtual conference.

At Arch+Design Imaging, you are brought into 
real conversations with top photographers and industry experts.

We cover topics far beyond browsing a photographer's portfolio or learning about their rise to the top. We dive into business, marketing, life balance, and ways to create actionable steps that you can take to grow your business.

Conversations, not presentations.

You are not being talked TO, but rather, you are in a conversation. You can ask questions along the way, exchange comments with other attendees, and feel confident that your questions have truly been answered. 

Conversations for markets worldwide. 

Seriously, we mean that!
We know that not all parts of the world function the same way in business, whether because of culture, legalities, or economics. Every year we make sure to have multiple sessions that are from photographers outside of the US, with at least one of those sessions being a live one on day of. 

You're busy, we get it. 

This is why you'll have access to all our live session recordings, plus a collection of pre-recorded sessions.
You get access to all recordings for 30 days after the event ends. 
This means that even if you can't join live, you can still soak in all the goodness and take action to grow your business!
