George Hurrell (1904-1992)


I would like to conclude this weeks posts, by sharing one of my longtime passions.

For me, there is nothing more dramatically effective, than black and white film…

…especially when it comes to Hollywood glamour.

I can sit and look through picture books for hours on end, just staring at these images; appreciating the time, energy, and attention to detail, that went into creating one single breathtaking shot.

And without a doubt, George Hurrell was my all-time favorite Hollywood photographer.

Not only was he tremendously talented with a camera, but everyone who ever posed for him, said that he always made them feel relaxed and special, which allowed them to shine like the bright star they were.

So I would like to share with you some of the images that made this man, the most sought after photographer in Hollywood.

Lights, camera…and strike a pose!
