Shooting With Hollywood Stars

Rankin I see as the modern day David Bailey. He is one of my favourite photographers I will admit, along with Bailey. See Rankin's website here. Not only does Rankin take amazing photos, seen in the likes of Elle, Vogue and Wonderland magazines, Rankin also is one of the founders of Dazed & Confused magazine, AnOther magazine and Hunger magazine, has shot campaigns for top companies such as Nike and Dove, and has been involved with documentaries and creating films and music videos. Oh and this is only to name a few.

So when I heard that was a knew programme with Rankin in, I was there like a chair. The programme was BBC's Shooting with Hollywood Stars. Rankin works with his team and famous actors to recreate some iconic images of Hollywood stars.

If you're into your photography you should most definitely check this programme out. You can find it on BBC iPlayer here (thank god for the internet).

Here are a few of my favourite Rankin works:

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley by Rankin for the Ten Times Rosie book, released April 2010

French Connection AW13 Official Campaign Video shot by Rankin

Monica Bellucci shot by Rankin for Hunger Magazine's second issue 2012

Damien Hirst Shot by Rankin

Whilst searching for the link for you guys, I also noticed that BBC iPlayer have the film My Week With Marilyn to watch for free, see here. This film works well in line with the programme, as it focuses on one of Hollywood's most famous stars and fashion icon Marilyn Monroe. If you haven't seen this film yet, it is a must. Based on a true story and has the beautiful Michelle Williams playing Monroe, and past Burberry model Eddie Redmayne playing the stories author Colin Clarke.

The British fashion house let the world of Instagram into a sneak preview of behind the scenes of their up and coming fragrance campaign. And what a pairing - iconic models Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne. Mario Testino was the photographer for the shoot leaving me in even more anticipation to see the final outcome. 

Is this the best British fashion combination or what?!
