Portrait Inspiration - Giampaolo Sgura


Copyright Giampaolo Sgura

Women are my favourite subjects no matter who they are. Whether they are dancers at the Moulin Rouge, my mum, my sisters, models or women I have just met, I love shooting women. I understand women, their beauty, their insecurities, their fragility, their strength and their generosity. 

I recently discovered the work of the fabulous Giampaolo Sgura through the wonderful campaign he shot for Dolce and Gabbana and on the same day I opened Vanity Fair and there was one of the best photos I have seen of Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith for yonks!! By the fabulous Mr. Sgura..


I am now his number 1 fan. This man loves shooting women (you just need to look at his photos).Every pic I have seen of his women are beautiful, sensual and feminine .I love these two photos and the incredible feminine pose of Bianca Balti.


If you are shooting portraits these pics might be wonderful inspirations.
