Projects' Staff Weekly Obsession: Tim Walker.

The fashion photographers are taking over this week!

Tina is obsessing over the work from Mr. Tim Walker.

Tim Walker's photographs can be described as snapshots of a little girl's imagination or a page out of a fairy tale. The colors and atmosphere of the pictures are dreamy with his play on light and soft pastel colors. His pictures do more than just capture a of moment in time, they tell a whole story behind his eyes.



Tim Walker is a photographer based in London. Tim's interest in photography began while he was working for Conde Nast where he set up the Cecil Beaton archive. After graduating from Exeter Art College, he worked as a freelance photographic assistant before working as Richard Avedon's assistant in New York.

His career as a photographer was launched when he came in third in the Independent Young Photographer of the Year Award, and he went on to contribute to high-profile magazines including Vogue, W and Harper's Bazaar. He has also shot advertising campaigns for clients including Barney's, Comme des Garcons, Gap and Yohji Yamamoto.

Spotlight: Alix Malka.

Parisian-born Alix Malka began his career in the fashion world in 1985 working with Thierry Mugler. Today he is one of the most asked for photographers by international magazines.

He draws inspiration from designers John Galliano and Alexander McQueen, and filmmakers like Pedro Almodovar and John Waters. Malka's work shows his obsession with color and his unique and sophisticated styles which are apparent in these photographs.






If only we could all look this good underwater. Here, the lovely poses of Marcelina Sowa are captured with delicately swirling fabric and hair in a way that can't be done on land. The pictures were taken for a Japanese magazine, Numero Tokyo.

Spotlight: Photographer Phillip Toledano

This London-born photographer was meant to do something in the arts, having an American father and a French-Moroccan mother supporting his passion at the young age of 11 by buying him his first camera.

Toledano's career was interrupted for 10 years while he worked as an art director for ad agencies such as Berlin Cameron and Fallon.


Phillip resumed his picture-taking a couple of years ago and has been taking slightly odd photos ever since, while living in one of the most unique and creative places in the world, New York City, of course.
