Helmut Newton.
Helmut Newton is best known for his works as a photographer for Vogue. After working for many years as a photographer and creating commissioned work for Vogue and Harpers Bazaar, Newton developed a particular photographic style that was erotic and masochistic, some have claimed that he created the 'New Nude'. One of his most famous works is that incredible 'le smoking'.

I love the style of Helmut Newton's photographs, they scream glamour, sex and class all in one. They all seem to have a classic, timeless feel to them which makes you want to be part of the moment and look beautiful like the models in his images. He seems to use a really simple lighting and a very dark contrast in his images which really makes the image pop.
