About James Lynch
James currently attends Parsons School of Design, where he is a Sophomore studying Photography and Fashion Communication. Born in New York City, he was surrounded by the arts and influenced at a very early age. Shortly after his family relocated to the coast of Maine from NYC in 2012, he began experimenting with photography. There, he took to documenting the lives and adventures of his friends around him, plus the natural beauty of the state. Six years later, he returned to New York to begin his studies at Parsons and pursue his BFA.
