Culture in Focus: A Photographer’s Journey with Google Pixel 11 Pro
Culture in Focus is a collaborative project featuring three photographers from Google Pixel’s Creator Labs, showcasing fashion trends over the past 11 years through the Pixel 11 Pro camera. Photographers like Dana Scruggs, Justin French, and Campbell Addy captured trends that resonate with them, highlighting the evolution from 2016’s Rockstar Lifestyle to 2026’s Urban Adventurer.
During the COVID-19 lockdown, Justin French found a new appreciation for his Brooklyn neighborhood, documenting its beauty. Originally a data analyst, French transitioned into photography by necessity when he realized traditional shoots were financially unfeasible. He began taking portraits and showcasing his work, eventually capturing pivotal moments in fashion for the Culture in Focus campaign.
French’s work blends documentary and classical portraiture, allowing him to explore trends like Lockdown Leisure, Dadcore, Workwear Revival, and the Urban Adventurer movement. He appreciates the simplicity and functionality of the Pixel 11 Pro, which enhances his creative process without the burden of heavy equipment.
His journey reflects the importance of creativity during challenging times and how technology can facilitate artistic expression. French concludes that the Pixel 11 Pro allows him to achieve professional-quality images in a more accessible way, encouraging a broader audience to engage with photography.
