Fashion photography analysis

Hello fellow internet users.

There are many different forms of photography such as advertisement, promotional, fashion, photojournalism, portrait, high street studio work, architectural, medical, illustration, fine art and documentary. In my analysis I am going to be talking about three different photographers in fashion photography.

Fashion photography has excited since 1839, fashion has always been around but no one had thought to take actual picture of photography till this time. Fashion in photography is mostly used for advertisement whether they are taking pictures of models walking down the cat walk or taking photographs in a studio. 

A photography that I am going to be talking about is Terry Richardson. 

Terry Richardson is both a fashion and a portrait photographer. The way how he has captured this picture of a model who looks as if she is in the garden doing her daily gardening it shows a sexy side of gardening which would target the male audience. The lighting that has been used in this photograph would be studio lightning that has been placed in front of her, this is to give of the look of natural lighting. The look that she is going of to the audience would be a fierce independent look with a sexy attitude as she isn't wearing much and you are able to see what underwear she is wearing and there is a lot of skin being shown. She looks as if she is tired as she is leaning back on the fence whilst holding a shovel.

Another fashion photographer would be Norman Parkinson.

Norman Parkinson is a portait and a fashion photographer. The way how Norman Parkinson has captured this particular picture of a woman leaning agaisnt the pillar with her dress ravelled around the pillar causing the woman to show more of her legs creating a more of a wistful look give the audience the impression that this is beautiful and powerful woman by the way she is posing with her arms holder, this type of fashion photo would be used as the cover of a fashion magazine, causing the woman audience wanting to look like this graceful woman.  

An influential fashion photographer would be Nick Knight.

Nick Knight is an artistic fashion photographer, his type of work is very powerful and colourful, and is very famous for his work with Vogue. the vision that Nick Knight has captured win this photograph would be a waterfall feel as the colours which have been used are light and dark blues with a touch of pink being overfilled with the colour white, it's as if water is running over the model in a blissful way, the model appearance is if she has come back from the wild as her hair has been blown to create a dangerous look. This creates the audience to to feel as if they are in a rain forest swimming with the wild. In the back ground of the photograph the model look as if she is standing in water as there are raindrops surrounding the bottom of her body.
