"Born in Germany, in 1954, Ellen Von Unwerth has become one of the most influential fashion photographers in the world in the past few decades. Her images - whether color or black and white - are united by their production values and an impeccable sense of detail, but also for conveying a spontaneity that gleefully celebrates sexuality and femininity. Her photographs of female icons - including Kate Moss, Dita von Teese and Carla Bruni - often explore fantasies, featuring risque “props” such as a riding crop or handcuffs. The results are a fabulous mix of voyeurism and humor, teasing out the wilder nature of her subjects. Her new book Fraulein is available from Taschen". Source: www.eluxury.com
