art + commerce

My friend came over tonight to talk about our upcoming photoshoot this week and introduced me to the art + commerce agency website for some inspiration. We're going to do some portraits at the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge on Sunday and were discussing our "story" and feel for the shoot. Posted here are portraits and fashion work by Steven Meisel, Nathaniel Goldberg and Richard Burbridge.
I love Steven Meisel's work, above, particularly these last three photos from a shoot for Vogue, "Paris je t'aime". His work is so beautifully crafted.

I also liked these focused quiet atmospheres taken by Nathaniel Goldberg.


And Richard Burbridge...he seems to get the essence of his subjects flawlessly--love these portraits of Iggy Pop, Vivienne Westwood and Francesco Clemente.
