Fashion Photographers

[detune]

Hi All

I'm fully into fashion photography, trying to figure out all the lighting etc etc (I'm totally self taught) and just how much was post edited ..!?

Anyway, what other favorites do people have? - here are a few in my bookmarks -

www.demarchelier.net
www.eccentris.com
www.jonmoe.com
www.giulianobekor.com
www.matthewrolston.com
www.grayscott.com

some cool websites there too!

A fine collection of names. Of present-day workers, I would add the name Nick Knight, historically David Bailey has to be among my favorites.

can't seem to find much on Nick Knight, or maybe his stuff is on the 'banned content' on our server ( I do night shift on my 'day job'). David Bailey's work is really interesting! Especially his method of focus...

 

[NikoSperi]

Gilles Bensimon seems a glaring omission in that list

Danish fashion photog Steen Evald is a great idol for me.

And my other huge favourite is Peter Lindbergh. He has shot danish model/photographer Helena Christensen several times and a lot of other models. His book, 10 Women, is a GREAT book with lots of B/W (and a few colour) shots of gorgeous supermodels.

Others are

David Bailey
Helmut Newton
Richard Avedon

Can't help you. I suspect for many of the top names, having a website is "beneath them". That said, I loved Patrick Demarchelier's website... particularly his personal B&W non-fashion stuff.

Peter Lindburgh's stuff looks amazing! But the other guys website is on the 'blocked sites' list already!! Faaaar out

I found heaps more on Gilles after digging around...

you could also google "the fashion spot" and go to Forums / Creative Team / Photographers, people post their favourite fashion photographers.

holy moly O_O

 

[detune]

that fashion spot site is good but that 'photographer' Terry Richardson is a mess and needs to die. Or maybe it's that i don't like child porn.

Just checked out Steen Evald's work, absolutely amazing and exactly the inspiration for the shoot I'm doing this weekend!! Thanks
