Happy Friday Petals :-)
I was planning on writing a wee post on my favourite photographer but realised that I'm far too indecisive to pin point just one - I'm so indecisive I often mix my cheerios with coco pops! Instead, I thought it'd be more fun to create a new series called *jazz hands* 'Under the Microscope'. I'll get the ball rolling with quirky, German fashion photographer: Juergen Teller. Whenever I'm flicking through magazines or scrolling down Tumblr and an image strikes me, nine times out of ten it says his name beneath! His photos are so iconic, intimate and transport me into a world of endless possibilities!
It's taken me about two hours and four cups of tea to narrow down my top favourite snaps... feast your eyes on these!
BJÖRK AND HER SON SINDRI, 1993
DAISY LOWE
One of my favourite photo shoots of his is called 'The Magic Show' from 1994 and surprisingly features no celebrities, just a young girl with eccentric accessories and piercing eyes...
"Diamante horns from Portobello Market, London..."
KATE MOSS, VOGUE 2003
SOFIA COPPOLA & MARC JACOBS
KATE MOSS
I love Margherita Maccapani Missoni so much I wrote an entire blog post about her zany, kooky fashion sense!
KARLIE KLOSS
KIRSTEN DUNST, W MAGAZINE 2014
MARION COTILLARD, W MAGAZINE 2013
SELF PORTRAIT WITH HIS SON ED
DARIA WERBOWY
KATE MOSS, VOGUE 2003
You've probably noticed by now Jeurgen's trademark bright filter and a recurring model, Kate Moss! Over the years, the duo have had countless photo shoots (both professional and intimate) and it shows with Kate's relaxed energy. I also love how the notoriously elusive model allows him to capture candid moments with her daughter, Lila Grace - it's these personal snaps that remain my favourite of her...
Once I've settled into my new accommodation at uni, I want to frame these three Gothic shots - they just speak to me...
BJÖRK, 2007
CHARLOTTE GAINSBOURG
Whilst getting my Inspector Gadget on and researching the ins and outs of Juergen Teller, I stumbled upon this fascinating article with musings behind some of his most renowned photographs!
