Artist Research - David Bailey




"David Bailey has made an outstanding contribution to photography and the visual arts, creating consistently imaginative and thought-provoking portraits. As well as new work, this landmark exhibition includes a wide variety of Bailey’s photographs from a career that has spanned more than half a century."

Iconic images by David Bailey that I think are great sources of research for my project. I am really struggling with composition and fitting everything into the frame that I want to. With it being a square format I often feel like I am cramming too much in or not getting what I want to in due to the shape. Looking at these gives me some possible ideas for getting the close up shot of my model. How maybe like the Mick Jagger one I could crop right in, or as In the rest of the images maybe get a head and shoulder shot of my subject.
