Juergen Teller

All: Juergen Teller

We had a lecture on the history of fashion photography the other day, it was one of my favourite lectures but it made me really miss my photography. Juergen Teller is an amazing photographer, i would describe his style as awkward. But the awkwardness seems to work. All his shots seem candid, and its quite refreshing to see the (massive) body of work he's done for Marc Jacobs as it goes against the conventional airbrushed glamorous look used so frequently in high fashion advertising.

"Marc pulled on one of the coats, put his hand in the pocket and found a Louis Vuitton Murakami phone charm that I must have been carrying the last time I wore it. He gave me a funny look and said, “I’m actually wearing your clothes. This feels a bit weird”

Bizarre but i love!

Marc Jacobs Fall 2010

Here's another controversial campaign from Marc Jacobs shot by Juergen Teller. You can always rely on the collaboration of Teller and Jacobs to produce something excitingly controversial and refreshing, although this one in particular kind of freeks me out a lot, reminds me of the film Shutter Island that i watched the other day! aghh!
