Hedi Slimane is one of my favorite photographers for a number of reasons. The pictures from the concerts and parties he goes to could easily be really cobrasnake-y but aren't. He'll compare one set of photos with another to highlight the similarities-or differences-of two things, like putting pictures of a rose throughout a set of Courtney Love photos. I don't know who most of the people he photographs are but I want to learn more about each one. He didn't even study photography in school (come to think of it, few of my favorite designers studied fashion. Rei, the Mulleavys, Vivienne Westwood...)
Anyway, these are the kinds of photos that can take my breath away and make me think at the same time. Nothing but love.
All from the Hedi Slimane Diary. I was gonna put some of these on the same photo to make this less lengthy but you can't really pair any of them together, they need to be seen on their own. Now go look at the other thousands of photos he's taken!

the one with the blond girl with the half short/half long hair with one side pulled up in a cheetah print bow is one of my favorite photographs of all time.
i think i love it so much because she has such interesting hair, i just want her to turn around so i can see her face. but hedi didn't take any of her face and i think it's because he wanted people to be curious, as if her face were a mystery.
he only wanted us to know her by the back of her head.
Amazinggggg. Hedi is such a talent. I love those photos of Jethro Cave.
Incredible photography ! :)
I like the tiny visitors on the Imagine memorial.
The Jethro Cave set totally took my breath away. They are amazing.
The first one is one of my favorites
I love the way hedi only really photographs in black and white
The atmosphere is always perfect
LOL OMG etc I've been reading it as Heidi for months and had assumed he was a she. JOKES.
I've always loved Hedi Slimane. He's so amazing...I saw him in the Carine Roitfeld documentary on CNN, and I flipped.
I really wanted that Dazed and Confused issue with all his photos of teens. Sadly, I did not get my hands on it...tear...
I love Hedi Slimane, especially his photos for dazed and confused at the beginning of the year... Just. So. Kwl.

Really insightful commentary on Hedi Slimane here. Thanks for the link to his website!
Ah, they are lovely. And powerful. I've never heard of him? before. Thanks for the intro.
pure and simple everything. i love it.
Hey, Hedi Slimane and me have something in common now, we have both photographed Jethro Cave!
^^SO jealous!
these pics are pretty cool, but i'm very anti-smoking so that kinda throws off my liking for the pics. althought i think the photography is really good.

You're right, these are amazing. I actually really love that all of these are in black and white, they just wouldnt have the same message in colour.
Love the Jethro Cave ones, of course. I'm pretty sure I have almost ever picture from that shoot saved on my computer
