He began his career as an intern for Annie Leibovitz, and has gone on to photograph the likes of Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen, Tupac, The Smashing Pumpkins, Blind Melon, Dave Matthews Band, Phish, and Björk. His "unobtrusive" style, according to his bio, is one of the features that Clinch's photographic subjects enjoy.
Clinch's photographs have appeared in publications throughout the world, including Vanity Fair, Spin, and Rolling Stone. Clinch has published two books: Discovery Inn in 1998, and The Iron Bird Flies in 2000.

In 2003, Clinch founded the film company Three on the Tree Productions, based in New York City. He is also among the 43 noted photographers invited to donate a print to "FOCUS: an auction of the finest photography to benefit City Harvest...."
