Beverley Clifford was an Australian photographer active during the 1950s-1970s.

Career

Beverley Clifford produced photographs for magazines, books, government and commercial commissions and projects, much of it made on the Northern Beaches in Sydney during her professional career. Husband Ken also worked as a medical photographer at the University of Sydney.

Recognition

Bevereley Clifford’s photography resulted in a book, Sydney, more than a harbor : a photographic glance at a surging cityCite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page). in which he writes that while the obvious landmarks of the "bridge and the opera house, “Paddo’s” iron lacework, Bondi and Manly beaches, the post office colonnade and the tall glass boxes that, with telephoto lens treatment, constricts Pitt Street into more of a claustrophobic canyon than it really is..."

Photographically, however, it is well justified by the warmly appropriate touch of an argument erupting in the near foreground.Indeed, most of the behind-scenes pictures seem to have been selected for the human quirks they encapsulate—the fiercely vocal woman at a political meeting, the clasped couple testing LunaPark’s “love-meter”, the patience of anglers on a jetty’s timbers and of passengers sitting in front of Central’s train indicator board, the extraordinary character declaiming in the Domain. These are all quite cleverly caught in action or inaction

Beverley and Ken contributed images for a number of other books on Australia, one being Camera in Australia published in 1970, which also included work by Max Dupain, Kerry Dundas, David Moore, and Wolfgang Sievers.[1]
