David Bailey is undeniably one of the greatest photographers of our time and easily one of my favourites. I love his simple, timeless approach to photographs and his unique style that has captured some of the most iconic portraits of the last 50 years.
Some of my all time favourite shots are from his "Box of Pin Ups" series which contain some of the most powerful, candid images of the true icons of the 1960's fashion, music and pop culture scene - So iconic and rare, original sets of the photographs have sold for over £20 000.
Jean Shrimpton
Michael Cane
Andy Warhol
John and Paul
Mick Jagger
Jane Birkin
Blow Up is one of my favourite movies and as the main character is based on Bailey and his eccentric personality and reputation, I thought I'd include the poster, which I love.
