“We are not afraid of failure.”

Director and photographer Knoxy Knox speaks on Perspective, her path to success, and realizing that life is happening FOR her, not TO her.

About the speaker

Knoxy Knox is half Texan, half Cajun, and 100% inspiration.

She has been a working artist for the past 17 years, unmatched in her dedication to a job well done. As a commercial director + photographer, she is passionate about breathing life into creative concepts, resulting in elevated visuals that tell a story and connect deeply with the viewer.

Her values are an integral part of her process, resulting in a desire to disrupt this industry where she can; starting with the talented individuals in front of and behind her camera. In the commercial photography world, only 8% of jobs are awarded to women, and the statistics are abysmally worse for other under-served communities.

Knoxy is dedicated to staffing her shoots (and casting talent) with the best of the best and with diversity and representation top of mind. Her highly pedigreed team consists of a diverse array of individuals who represent the under-served populations of women, POC, LGBTQ+ and an array of non-white ethnic communities.

In her spare time, you can find her riding horses, traveling the world, or spending time with loved ones (preferably on the side of a mountain).
