Fashion photography isn't about the model - and it's not even about the clothes. Fashion photograhy is advertising. And like all advertising, it's about two things: first, creating an image - a unique image - that captures the viewer's interest long enough for the name of the brand to register; and second, linking that brand to a perception - reliable, fun, exotic, inexpensive, etc.(posted 8658 days ago)This is a brilliant, unique shot. Very strong compositional and graphic elements in conjunction with equally powerful use of color. It's not photojournalism, it's not a portrait, it's not a catalog shot. It's fashion.
