Inspiration: Patric Shaw

Fashion, Inspiration, Photographers, Portrait

I was looking at Patric Shaw’s work on Flickr and thinking “man this guy is really really good”. His edgy fashion-esque portraits, many by the looks of things shot on film just blew away my prejudices about flickr being full of amateurs and hackneyed photography. I particularly love his recent picture of Patricia Clarkson.

It only turns out he’s an A list photographer shooting fashion beauty and portraiture for some very big clients. I fell out with flickr a while back but it really made me rethink my position towards it. Check out his flickr stream, his agency and his own site.

Stuart Xander

Portrait

Stuart Xander of the band Xander and the Peace Pirates. A popular band on the local circuit who recently supported Bon Jovi.

Interesting fact number one: I taught Stuart guitar for a little while back when I worked at Liverpool Community College, where he claims I introduced him to the blues. Not sure if I want to take responsibility for that or not!

Interesting fact number 2: Many years later I became friends with his brother Keith who is a very fine lead guitar player. Keith is missing his right hand and plays with the aid of a claw. He actually tapes a plectrum onto the end and plays a mean blues guitar.
