Herb Ritts: I'd take a picture of a friend who needed a head shot
"I'd go down to the end of my street, to a garage that had a certain feeling about it, or a particular light. I'd take a picture of a friend who needed a head shot. That's how I learned, instead of having school assignments and learning camera techniques."
~Herb Ritts

Images that are dramatic,intimate and spontaneous. Herb’s groundbreaking approach is still the standard to which others aspire .
