    Koichiro Doi

    Koichiro Doi, born in Tokyo, studied fashion design before shifting his focus to photography. His main passion was for still life, but he acquired technical techniques and skills in beauty photography as well.
    He studied fashion at Parsons School of Design before realizing that it was actually photography he aspired to pursue. Upon his return to Tokyo he began to shoot and develop his own techniques, without any formal training. Seeing his portfolio and the roster of cutting edge brands and companies he has worked with, it is easy to see he has mastered the craft of beauty and still life photography.

    Doi shoots for numerous magazines such as Vogue Nippon, Harpers Bazaar Japan, Frech Magazines, Numéro and Spur. Doi now works between Tokyo and Paris.

    Photographer Greg Lotus’ work can be found regularly on the pages of Italian Vogue, Vanity Fair, GQ, L’Uomo Vogue, and W magazine. He draws inspiration from classical paintings and a wide array of sources and life experiences, Lotus reinterprets in his own evocative way the use of light and shadow, playing with angles and composition to enhance the graphic quality of his images. Nature is a recurrent motif in his photography, a clear echo of his childhood. Lotus often mixes high fashion with rural or wild surroundings and includes exotic animals in his compositions, using elements that link the rarefied atmosphere of the fashion industry to the organic beauty of the natural world.

  • Kirsty Mitchell

    Kirsty Mitchell

    Kirsty Mitchell (1976) is a fine art photographer and fashion designer based in the UK. Following the tragic loss of her mother, Kirsty turned to photography to help deal with her grief and embarked on her now revered three year series entitled ‘Wonderland’, created in her mother’s memory – inspired by the fairy tales her mother read to her as a child. The international acclaim for her work led Kirsty to leave her fashion career in 2011 and pursue her future as a fine art photographer. Kirsty’s belief in beauty and fascination with folklore has become the root of her inspiration, with work that has led her to be described as a multi-faceted artist with talents and artistic direction that combine to produce beguiling, dream like images – which Kirsty calls ‘fantasy for real’.
