Nick Knight

Nick Knight is a Photographer with many talents, with his specialisations being documentary photography and Fashion photography. I Especially like his experimental fashion photography, as well as his black and white docomentary photography. In his documentary photography based on British "Skin Heads", I like the way that he uses lighting as well as black and white imagery, to give a greater contrast, making the image more striking and somewhat more emotional. Almost as a glimpse into somebodies past life or memories. His fashion photography has a completely different feel, almost as if they were taken by a completely different photographer. They are somewhat more menacing, making you wonder about the design process, and wether it tormented the designer.

This image reminds me of images taken by a Photographer Adam Saunders, who i will also include in my research.





8/10, i have given this score as i especially like the editing used. and the slow shutter speeds which give the image of multiple faces in his fashion photography
