Burberry Prorsum A/W '11/'12 Ad Campaign

Perhaps it's the fact that it's winter where I currently am, or perhaps it comes down to having a sense of the collection's potential impact upon 2012's fashion, but it's fair to say that I'm always happy to take in any reinterpretation of Burberry Prorsum's fall 2011 collection. A collection that makes burnt colours and a mod 60s vibe its hallmarks.

The fifties, food and fashion

You may not think of it, particularly in a fashion context, but there's something innately romantic about a big bunch of rhubarb, a string of sausages, or some flowering artichokes. The romance isn't just in what you do with those objects, what you create from them; it's in the notion of where they come from. It's the 1950s and you're the woman to whom cooking is a sensual art; you pick up your fresh produce from the local market of your provincial European town; and you do it all in your stylish headscarf and two-piece skirt suit.

Hello sunshine, hello Lily Donaldson

Muse issue #26, Summer 2011

When Muse magazine do summer they really do summer, so Sigrid Agren's swim shoot wasn't the only thing in the issue to leap off the pages in vibrant colour and with an attitude that drops serious artiness in exchange for pure fun. Lily Donaldson's Hello Sunshine is the kind of sexy that's bold, saturated, attention-grabbing and styled for summertime glamour; with tailored colour-blocking, neoprene swimwear, and solid gold jewellery aplenty.

A projection through time

       

Jewellery and horological photo shoots seem like the bastard children in fashion magazines. Often feeling like a last minute arrangement, they usually involve close-up beauty photos of one of the day's leading models, parts of her body layered with an uncomfortable quantity of whatever product it is the publisher wants to highlight to their readers. Time and time again (not a pun, honestly) that's the extent of it.

Photographer Charles Guo, however, brings something new to the concept of the accessories photo shoot. And at the same time he doesn't. After all, the commonalities for these kinds of photo shoots are all there: the watches, the model, and the nudity. Yet the overt simplicity that normally plagues such photo shoots is gone, replaced instead with dramatic lighting, heady, and (technically) no jewellery at all.

JAN VON HOLLEBEN

"I once ruled the worlds. Not just one, but many. I ruled them with mirrors and lenses. I ruled them with light and shadow and time. Sometimes I ruled with a trick of the eye. Through my camera, an entire cosmos took shape, and each world within it seemed to operate by a certain unfamiliar logic, like a sort of magical clockwork."

Matt Henry, London

Matt Henry is a UK-based photographer who shoots little stories about 60s/70s America – a project that can be attributed to three decades of U.S. film and television addiction. Although his love of storytelling led him first into fashion photography, he quickly became tired of having to tell stories about beautiful women in beautiful clothes. Fueled by the notion that another photographic genre of narrative fiction had yet to be embraced, he set about creating his somewhat darkened vision of classic, rural America. Matt lives in Brighton with his Rhodesian Ridgeback dog Sam and works commercially out of Paris and London.

Barbara Cole

Barbara Cole is a Toronto-based, self-taught photographic artist, who has built an extraordinary career in image making. Cole’s innovation is in her underwater photography; she states “water becomes a natural lens that refocuses and reinterprets the painterly aesthetic.”  Following the success of White Noise and Underworld, Chromatics marks Cole’s growing interest in colour abstraction.  In this series, she has progressed towards a near-total dissolution of the figure, referencing and reinterpreting mid-century colour field painting.  The result is a dramatic tension between the figure and form that tests the nature of photography and its impact on our experience of reality.

Tim Walker photography

Tim creates evocative images full of textured nuance and intriguing detail and his innovative photography is amongst the most imaginative and exuberant being produced today.

He draws upon his childhood to construct sets for his images that are witty and playful yet sufficiently sophisticated enough to perform for his fashion clients.

Its the sort of thinking that I could imagine creating lots of fun during a shoot (aside from the hard work in creating it of course) as well as in conceiving his ideas.

Patrick Demarchelier

A man who has worked for Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Glamour and many others. He has worked with top models, make-up artists and designers and was even mentioned in the goddess of chick-flicks 'The Devil Wears Prada'. Patrick Demarchelier has literally reached the top of the fashion photography career, and judging by the shots below his position is well deserved.

Miles Aldridge

"When Antonioni came to London to make the film Blow-up, he had all of the grass in the park painted green because it wasn't colorful enough for him," notes photographer Miles Aldridge. "That's why an hour and a half of an Antonioni movie is so much more interesting to me than an hour and a half of real life. Because it's condensed emotion, condensed color, condensed light."
