Level 5 photography
Portraits
David Bailey

    

In 1960 David Bailey began photographing for British Vogue, and his fashion work and celebrity portraiture, known for stark backgrounds and dramatic lighting, his pieces of work reflects the 1960s British cultural trends and breaking down old fashioned and class barriers by adding a punk look in clothing. His square format images are greatly recognised and often use a subtle composition to emphasize a relationship between his subjects  when photographing more than one person, when doing a group photo or just two people they wear similar clothing to show how close and how alike they are to each other.
