Justin Mott
I’m Justin Mott, a working photographer based in Vietnam with nearly two decades of experience in editorial and commercial photography, including over 100 assignments for The New York Times. My work has been published internationally, and I continue to shoot professional assignments around the world.
This channel is focused on helping photographers improve with clarity and intention. I share practical guidance on seeing, editing, and thinking more critically about photographs—drawing directly from real assignments, long-term projects, and years of professional experience.
I offer online one-on-one coaching, portfolio reviews, long-term mentorships, and small group workshops for photographers who want to build better habits and stronger judgment.

This week I’m teaching a private one-on-one workshop with a wonderful returning client from the UK. We’re in the northern mountains, working through a visual storytelling exercise.
These are a few frames I made today while shooting side by side—guiding in real time, responding to light, and building the story as it unfolds.
Private and public workshop are available , DM me for more details.
