There are many fashion photographers around the

world, however Alex D James stood out to us as he

was more creative with his work, for example;

Is the work edited or

enhanced?

His work is edited, he has created the image from

Simon Cowell to emerge to look like himself. For this

photographer he obviously uses a lot of photoshop,

however I don’t feel like this would be controversial.

He’s not creating effects to make himself look better.

Comparing examples from

20th century Fashion to today

In the 1940s vogue (left) it more

looks like a painting other than a

photograph. It is more femine and

classy. Whereas, 2014 (right) is

sexy and shows skin, it all as

advertisment for the artist. It doesn’t

normally have just a model on the

front cover like the 1940s Vogue

did, it now has variety of celebs. In

2014 most of the images are

photoshopped to make it look better.
