Research into Photographers for Project 4.

I decided to begin my research into photographers by looking at David Bailey.

He was contracted by Vogue magazine in the 1960's. He is said to have help capture the 'Swinging Sixties' at its prime. He did a lot of work with idols of the Sixties such as The Beatles and models such as Jean Shrimpton.

A lot of Bailey's work was done in black & white. The images above are some of Bailey's typical work. The top 2 images were taken from Bailey's 'Box of Pin-ups.' The third image is of model Jean Shrimpton.
