Glen Luchford - Photographer

I was sure there was a thread on him....but I can't seem to find anything.

Here's the A&C blurb on him :

Glen Luchford’s earliest photographs appeared on the pages of high-end fashion magazines such as The Face and Arena. His images were celebrated for their fresh, cinematic approach to fashion.

In 1996, his work caught the eye of executives at Prada, and he was commissioned to an unprecedented, two-year advertising contract, in which he helped conceptualize and photograph their successful campaigns. Luchford’s work for Prada won numerous awards and has been featured in galleries throughout Europe and Japan.

Luchford expanded his commercial work by branching into fine art, collaborating on a series of oversized, color nudes with celebrated painter, Jenny Sayville. Their acclaimed joint effort was featured in a number of galleries, including the Pace/MacGill Gallery in New York City.

Luchford’s moody photography continues to appear in magazines - Italian Vogue, American Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Spin, Another, and Rolling Stone - and he’s shared his vision with internationally recognized advertisers such as MiuMiu, Sephora, Callaghan, Smart Car, Jaguar, Trussardi, Iceberg, Hennessy, Patek Phillipe watches and Volkswagen. He’s just completed shooting Levi’s White Line this past season in New York.

And as if his commercial endeavors weren’t keeping him keep busy enough, the latest buzz surrounding Luchford is the full-length documentary film, "Here to Where," showcased (to rave reviews) at film festivals in the US and Europe.

I know! The angles are great, I love those ones...it's amazing how an otherwise boring shoot can suddenly be quite fantastic by change of pose and angle...

I don't think I've seen the Jenny Saville work, but I'll have a look!

you're far from boring, i love these. they are sweet and fresh and elegant without being stiff!
droogist posted jenny saville's work in favourite painters some time ago. it's a bit similar to francis bacon with a touch of lucian freud...rather rough i'd say, so i'm curious to see what she did with luchford...

I wonder how it came about for Luchford and Saville to work on that project I would never have paired them normally.

these ones are nice too
