Amazing work by photographer and digital artist Holger Pooten.
Photographer Spotlight: Holger Pooten
Photographer Spotlight: Guido Argentini


Guido Argentini is an Italian born fine art photographer (that’s a rather loose categorization, by the way) known mostly for his studies of women. You’ve probably seen his “Silver” series making its way around the internet lately, so aside from that I thought we’d try to highlight some of his other works as well. NSFW gallery after the jump.
Photographer Spotlight: Chris Searl

The fashion photography of Chris Searl. From his bio:
As a photographer Chris has completed national and international campaigns for Levis, Mooks, Mambo, Sony Music, Bonds, Stussy, Insight, Modular Records, Volcom, DC Shoes and a number of magazine titles, including The Sunday Magazine, Vice, Intersection, Oyster, Nylon and Japans ‘Beikoku Ongaku’. As a director Chris has completed full production on a cinema commercial for the General Pants Clothing Group, directed and shot a series of 3 commercials for Nike, station idents for World Movies/SBS and an aria commercial for Triple J. Chris is a founding partner and currently works as both co-Editor and Photographer of the arts/design title Monster Children.
Photographer Spotlight: Viktor Vauthier

Just discovered the work of Viktor Vauthier, undoubtedly the forgotten love child of Terry Richardson and Mark The Cobra Snake. Pretty entertaining work–assuming you like hipsteratic(TM) nudity and Ryan McGinley flavored fantasy fluff (you do, you pervert). NSFW gallery after the jump.
Photographer Spotlight: Craig Nunn
Craig Nunn is a London based photographer that shoots entirely in film (something that we encourage all of you to do). He has recently shot for Vice and is featured in the upcoming Company of People book.
Photographer Spotlight: Hilde Holta-Lysell
Photographer Spotlight: Tony Kelly


Tony Kelly is a Dublin born photographer, predominately now working in fashion.
Tony’s carrer started at Independent Newspaper Group and spent his formative years covering people and places that most of us never want to see. Such as the civil war in Rwanda and the war in Afghanistan. After eight years of covering conflict, Tony moved his focus to fashion.
Photographer Spotlight: Daidō Moriyama


After posting about Japanese photographer Nobuyoshi Araki, I felt the need to spotlight my all time favorite Japanese photographer, Daidō Moriyama. Moriyama’s work primarily focuses on the breakdown of traditional cultural values in post-war Japan. His work has held a haunting presence in my life ever since I first stumbled upon him many years ago.
Photographer Spotlight: Nobuyoshi Araki


Nobuyoshi Araki (Araki Nobuyoshi) is a Japanese photographer and contemporary artist. He is also known by the nickname Arākī. He has published over 350 books and is widely considered to be one of the most prolific artists alive or dead in the world.
Photographer Spotlight: Wendy Bevan

I love the work of Wendy Bevan. Unfortunately the web is rather scarce when it comes to information on her, but I did manage to find this short quote:
Predominantly focusing her lens on female subjects, Wendy Bevan’s Polaroid-derived photography for i-D, Pop, The Observer, Tank and The Independent is compellingly characterised by its grainily realised dark settings and beautifully sinister mood.
I have included a selection of her images after the jump, as well as a gallery of her editorial for the May 2009 issue of Marie Claire Italy.
