Irving Penn

“A good Photographer is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it”

— Irving Penn 1917 - 2009

Irving Penn has always been one of my biggest Inspirations for photography, it all started when I discovered his book as a child at our local library in London...I was around 11 years old and totally blown away by the images. Consequently i kept renewing the same book month after month pawing over the images being totally mesmerised by them all. At the time i never realised how big a name he actually was and his impact on the world of photography, I just simply connected to his work.

A selection of some of irving penn's work i most love.
