Another very nice reportage former London-based photographer shooting fashion, portraits, music bands and advertising. A lot of respectful clients and top models in the portfolio. Of course I admire tha fashion section the most.

The website is clean html and very easy to navigate and watch the pictures. Except for one thing. Sometimes there is a horizontal scrollbar along with the vertical one. And you don’t notice the former while using the latter (you can’t use both at the same time).

A friend of my friend at work. Really great talented photographer! A lot of beautiful and creative fashion and advertising shots! He was born in Switzerland, then worked in Moscow for some time, then moved back and now works for Moscow, Zuerich, Paris and Munich.

Very nice fashion photography by the group of LA-based talented photographers. The series are really interesting. And I like the first one with the water glass in front of the models. Very sexy and captivating!

But the website is really awful in terms of usability. First of all in “singles” section one has to REVEAL the thumbnails with the mouse. This is incredibly uneasy. This is not a game - it’s a portfolio and it has to be comfortable for people to work with. But this is not the worst. The worst is the “series” section. The same idea like in the first section (when you see just the squares and you have to reveal the thumbnails) but this time the whole line of thumbs is moving!!! And moving to the left! Why? What for? I don’t even know with this moving line how much works they have and where I was last time. Really annoying.

Found the online fashion magazine “Republic of fashion”. There are only three magazines yet and the first one is too small, but the others are really worth to look at and read. But what’s interesting is that everyone could be featured there. At the bottom there is a link to guidelines for submissions.

A very beautiful portfolio of a beauty/fashion photographer Rony Shram. Another one put into my favorites. Very nice and clean flash design with easy navigation system.

Another my favourite-at-once fashion photographer. A lot of beautiful stunning creative pictures! And of course the clients’ list is big and respectful. The menu is poped out by clicking the mouse anywhere. Not so easy to get used to but you can view the pictures by pressing the spacebar.

Wow! Bumped into another beautiful portfolio. Today it’s a London-based photographer. And he has the most biggest collection of portraits at the National Portrait Gallery in London. Gotta visit this gallery when I’m in London this summer. I love his beauty section! And as a designer I like preloading images interface. It’s fun to see the bars being raised and became buttons.

Another very beautiful portfolio. Just have no words - the works are amazing! Though the “bio” section is empty. Pity.
