Tim Walker - Photographer

Oh and I've just picked up the Vanity Fair with Katherine Heigl on the cover, and Mr Walker has done a smashing editorial piece, capturing the portraits of a "cross section of proud standard-bearers in Britain's long tradition of eccentricity". Perfect and perfect.

I love the quote where he says of his favourite films...
"the scene in the Wizard of Oz when the whole set turns from black and white into colour... that changed my life forever!"
that moment is so often referenced, but Tim's work really is a testament to colour, so it's a genuine compliment for the scene

I believe the tree was painted by Shona Heath, the set designer he most commonly works with. She is responsible for the creation of some of the most fantastic and beautiful sets his photography is set amongst. I've always wondered what the creative process is ... do they come up with the ideas together? Or does he brainstorm the idea and she makes it for him? That tree painting is one of my most favourite Tim photos ever. That entire shoot was in an old Casa Vogue that is one of my most jealously guarded possessions. THank you for posting it ... x
