Saddened to hear the passing of the great Patrick Demarchelier. Beyond just an admirer of his work he was a stylistic influence as well. Studio seamless work is challenging in its insatiable need for expression. Without an environment to interact with the burden falls on model and photographer to create personality, expression and drama. Patrick’s studio work was masterful. His use of single large soft light modifiers was inspired and the tonality in the processing was magical. Born near Paris in 1943, Patrick left for New York in 1975 to begin a long career for almost every major publication in the @condenast family. His early influence in fashion photography was from his work with Henri Cartier-Bresson, another influence of mine. In 2007 Patrick was awarded the L’ordre des Arts et des Lettres from the French government. RIP Patrick. • • • • #women #stylist #styling #fashionstylist #styleblogger #hairstylist #woman #designer #stylish #fashionable #fashionblog #fashionaddict #ladies #fashionstyle #editorial #womensfashion #chic #hairdresser #fashionphotography #lady #fashiondesigner #man #outfitoftheday #shoes #lookbook #instastyle #menswear #fashiongram https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb0TYAvLcqu/?utm_medium=tumblr
