Helmut newton

Helmut newton

Born in Berlin, Germany and has been interested in photographs since the age of 12 when he purchased his first camera and worked with a photographer called Elsie Neulander Simon. In 1930 Helmut newton become a  reporter for the Straits Times and worked as a portrait photographer.

We had a discussion in uni over Helmut newton and the question was asked weather Helmut newton's photography is porn and personally I feel it's not porn and it is purely the human form and its how people see his work in terms of beauty and the human condition. Maybe Helmut newton loves the women's natural form and shape and because of this then thats why he likes photographing this.

I chosen this image as it shows what I am saying above. This photograph is not in anyway pornographic I don't think and I feel it's basically photographing nude women in a studio.

  

  This photograph is a photograph I have just found and I think it's a great image as it has depth of field and has a perfect women's body with a women holding a polaroid camera and film. I think Another good reason for why this photograph is great is because of the orange background and how it stands out.
