When there’s talent there is no need to say too much, the work of the artist speaks for itself. Although I didn’t run out of words at all, I let you judge what I found this morning by yourself. As soon as I saw these photos I got almost overwhelmed by the colors and work of the photographer and film maker Erik Madigan Heck.
Following the latest shots realized for Kenzo and Mary Katrantzou. The colors are amazing, stunning poses and the whole concept is really consistent both in the chromatic choice than in the digital effects. There’s elegance and gentleness in the models poses, they are surrounded by an invisible aura. Definitely a talent to watch.

Speaking about the world of fashion there are sometimes things I do not entirely understand. I wonder how some fashion magazines still propose poses so artificial in their editorial work, models often do faces and stay in still poses that a normal person would never dream of doing, ever. It is likely that in order to be a model you need to be trained in aerobics or in an advanced hatha yoga session. When I was younger I used to live with some friends of mine who are now well known fashion designers and sometimes we used to animate boring evenings by mimic poses from “notorious” magazines (one among my favorite magazines).
Some of these poses were so weird that if people, in their everyday life, would have ever tried to stay in those positions for more than five minutes, they would have certainly risked a paralysis (but it was sooo funny for us). Of course not all the photographers are the same (alleluia), I’m lucky, I used to work with very talented professionals, (one of them is directing a famous fashion magazine) they used to fix in their work the soul and not just outfits and awkward stunts. In this post I want to highlight some gorgeous pics of the fashion photographer Angelo Pennetta, a very talented guy who’s able to portray the inner side of the models through smiles and stolen moments.
This is what a photographer is called to do, the pics needs to communicate something more than a body and a brand. We need to see moments of life and dream trough fashion fairy tales, magazines are in my opinion the books we left in our childhood that we now want bring back.
