Blake West was born in Phoenix, Arizona and raised on the Navajo reservation in Arizona by parents who are artists. His mother is a photographer and his father a Smithsonian recognized silversmith & painter. Growing up on the reservation was an intense experience for Blake. He learned the culture, customs, and traditions of Native Americans at a very young age. Then he moved back to the city of Phoenix and experienced the diversity of the two different worlds. This is a metaphor to Blake's career, which began in Los Angeles 12 years ago.
Blake has had the pleasure to photograph many unique individuals and developed a style that is uniquely his own. In 2009 he did all the photography for the artist AM...since he has done photography for fashion, album covers, actors and musicians.
