Brandei Estes, the Head of the Photographs Department for Sotheby's in London, has seen and sold some of the most famous and well-respected photographs in the world. As Director, she is responsible for authenticating artwork, curating shows, meeting sales goals, and more.

While paintings and sculptures have been sought after for centuries, photographs have only become a recognized art form that's desired and sold relatively recently (late 1970s, and early 1980s.) Brandei and her team analyze fine photographic art works based on: value, condition, provenance, current trends, recent sales and history, contextualizing the work, and also what emotional connection or reaction a buyer may have with the work.

I absolutely LOVE being the host and producer of "Women with Cool Jobs", where I interview women who have unique, trailblazing, and innovative careers. It has been such a blessing to share stories of incredible, inspiring women since I started in 2020.

If you have benefitted from this work, or simply appreciate that I do it, please consider buying me a $5 coffee. ☕️
