Photographer Research

Research a photographer and post examples of their work, then discuss what you like about the artist and their images.
For this unit i researched fashion photographers, as this is a field i'm very interested in. I selected Mario Testino to focus on, as i really like his work and he has produced some great photographs throughout his career.
One of the things i like is that all his photographs are so different and varied, he doesn't use just one style, theme, concept and so on in his works, but explores a very wide range of possibilities to create his works and each one is conceptually and visually very strong.
As you can see below, Testino works in a lot of fashion/ glamour shots and uses a lot of celebrity models. Testiono creates a different mood and emotion by each image he captures, which is one of the skills essential for being a great photographer.
