There is such an artistic and creative nature behind fashion that naturally, I am also drawn to photography... particularly portraits. I stumbled across Jake Chessum's work recently and found myself intrigued at his celebrity portraits. Not only are the images beautiful, but he captures a wide range of unfiltered emotion that captivates your interest. Although his subjects are actors who are trained to transform themselves into characters/roles and convey raw emotion, I also believe as a photographer he assumes an important role in engaging and connecting with his subjects in order to capture those moments. Check out more of his incredible work at www.jakechessum.com.

this is cool. amazing photography. really like the one of amy, as a movie still...lovely
lovely photos! love black'n'white photos like this
I totally agree about the photographer connection. It's more than the ability to snap a photograph, that's why there is a difference between a photographer and a GWC (guy with camera). And, I have always loved Emma Thompson! Great photos.
