Who do you consider to be the essential fashion photographers? I really like Bill Cunningham's work, he's a street photographer that has been doing it for almost 40 years! He tends to find really interesting, unique fits of regular people.

Im a big fan of bill aswell, he seems like such a genuine person
>>9397297
yes, the way his voice goes up at 1:06 in the video I posted fills my heart with glee. I guess when you get as old as him you don't have the patience for anything other than earnestness (something gothninjas should learn).

The documentary was pretty good, the guy has crazy fucking memory, if there is something in runaways that has been done he immediately pointed it out and remembered the collection and designer who was being ripped off.
bill is cool and all but all he does is stand in a street and wait for a new yorker fashionista to walk
Avedon is where its at
lel you sound like you just found out about bill cunningham... can you even name another fashion photographer? no? stay basic.
Bill is a creepy old dude that shoots strangers w/out permission. The docu only showed a few examples but many people get angry and he has been arrested a few times.

Yo I actually enjoyed watching that

>>9398117

Check out the documentary "Bill cunningham New York".
It's good, he's a weird old man but seems really nice.

bless, thanks my friend
>>9398101
oh geez thank you anon, I didn't know there was a documentary :)
>>9398105
I don't think it is fair to compare him to regular fashion photographers- there are different skills to both.
>>9398106
I've been following his work for a while, but he's the only one I know. Would you, oh grand patrician, enlighten us all with your knowledge?
>>9398117
>implying he needs their permission
also what makes you think he's creepy?

your thread literally says fashion photographers, dumbass
yes its fair to compare, hes bland compared to masters like avedon, meisel, helmut newton or irving penn
Really into Willy Vanderperre and Pierre Debusschere atm. Of course always into Nick Knight at SHOWstudio too.
