i do like some of his photography as well, actually. there were some fendi ads with kirsten owen that he shot and they were really beautiful... i'll see if i can find them again.
but a lot of people say that it's really his assistants who take the pictures...

^i wouldn't be surprised... he's much more of art director

thx for the input estella

yep Karl as a photogrpaher is the biggest joke ever of this decade in fashion. He has like 10 assts. around him!

He should hire better assistants!

I'm gonna bite my lip...

I've seen one great photo he did of Natalia Vodianova for Numéro...
At least I remember it was great.
Other than that...No, he should stick with designing.
His Chanel advertisements are horrible.

Doesn't look very good IMHO.

Liliana's lips look so unusual haloed. I've never actually come across any of his photography. It's okay, not bad.

I like these from May Interview 2001 (devon-aoki.com)
But he's this designer legend, so he probably wasn't hired by magazines like Harper's Bazaar and Numero just because he is some kind of genious photographer..so that definetly ruins it for me, however good he may be..

beautiful!

 

[outdoorminer]

Don't like his work

 

[peppi]

wow...he must really like Brad Koennig..

 

[prosperk]

That's not true. He takes the pictures. His snapshots/reportage-style shots aren't often seen by the public-at-large but they're pretty good. So is his 'art photography'.

PK

that's more a feel in the shoots than he other work, which can be too distance / too cold sometimes, i think.
