When capturing celebrities in photos, you want a piece of their personality to shine through as much as their good looks. American photographer Eric Ogden achieves that admirably as presented through this series. Since fans are usually exposed only to the characters celebrities portray, it’s important that they feel a connection with who these celebs really are.
Eric Ogden acknowledges the importance of this concept in his work. Having shot for Vogue, The New York Times Magazine, W, Esquire, Vanity Fair, Rolling Stones and more, he seems to be more than succeeding. Kudos Eric Ogden.
