Leeds Street and Fashion Photography

I have never thought UK Street Photography or Fashion Photography could be my inspiration.

But suddenly, I find myself studying advertising campaigns, fashion magazines and, most importantly, organic work of Edward Steichen, Cecil Beaton, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Peter Lindbergh, Irving Penn and other inspirational fashion photographers. Their portraits, still lifes and seductive, yet stylish, images bring that 'oomph' to the campaigns that appear in Vogue, Elle, GQ, Daily Art and other top fashion magazines. With their artistic legacy involving images of the biggest names in the fashion and art world such as Yves Saint Laurent, Picasso or Woody Allen how could they not be photography gurus that one could aspire to.

So...

Follow my Leeds and West Yorkshire Photo-shoots!

Hopefully, I will bring a bit of their creative ideas, sophisticated lighting and composition to my Sapphire Sky Photography!

Meanwhile, here's a glimpse of a street fashion photo shoot I had pleasure to do with G.
