world famous Actor Leonard Nemoy’s VS the Controversial nude photos of the top super models: left to right, Stephanie Seymour, Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, Tatjana Patitz, and Naomi Campbell that put his name on the Fashion Photographers map in the the 90’s
These photographs were taken by two of my favorite photographers ( Herb Ritts), a Known Fashion photographer in the 80’s and 90’s and Leonard Nimoy , a celebrated actor known for his Tv show role as Mr. Spock in Start Trek Enterprise!
These captivating images demonstrate more than two decades of social evolution in a single image. I am sure Herb never saw this coming! Leonard’s take on one of his famous and most controversial images that put his name on the map as a top fashion photographer
20 years ago no one could ever imagine publishing Leonards photos in any magazine, let alone coming to terms with accepting the fact that Fat is Good and being Fit is no longer a requirement in the world of beauty or fashion photography.
But what’s next? where do we go from here? where do we draw the line? at 200, 300, 400 or a 1000 pounds? at what point it’s ok to say to NO…that is not a healthy looking body or a life style!
In the U.S alone 4 out of 5 kids under the age of 10 are considered obese and 3 out of 5 of those kids have diabetes! and we still tell ourselves that Fat is beautiful and we tell our kids it’s ok to be over weight, because everyone else is!

Luxury Fashion Photography by Shaun Alexander in Prague
Most people always ask me if I shoot everything in Black and white!
To everyone’s surprise, Â I shoot everything in color and then converting them to a perfect shade of BW
you may wonder why? well, after decades of doing what I do and teaching photography for at least half of my long 30+ years in the photography business,  for some reason I personally prefer Black and White images due to the fact that they offer less distraction and more information about the subject, lighting, contrast and the composition of each photographs VS too colorful images that may distract away from those important components, if not done well
Therefore, keeping in mind those very basic rules ( lighting, Contrast and composition), color photos can also be equally appealing!
These extremely colorful images offer a similar experience as my black and white photograophy work, yet  with vibrant and exciting colors
let you be the judge of that!

Iconic headshots for celebrity actor Kiko Ellsworth by Shaun Alexander studios – Hollywood California
Recently I had a pleasure of working with a very talented actor and an unbelievable human being named Kiko Ellsworth, His extraordinary talent as an actor is like nothing I have ever seen in the past 30 years of my career in Hollywood as a celebrity fashion photographer. I must say our shoot was magical and here are a few words he wrote me after our amazing photo session: I believe Shaun Alexander is the most generous photographer I have ever worked with. Generous with so many things from his personal take on life to the passion he bursts with behind the camera. I was definitely impressed with the sumptuous tiramisu he shared with me after the shoot as well as the fact that he superbly hand made himself.Â
As soon as I walked into his studio I knew from the feel, the music, the adornments, to the costumes and his assistants that this was the kind of warm yet high calibre studio I had envisioned for this shoot. It was energetic, artsy, layered with endless possibilities and very inviting to have an all day shoot in.Â
Natural and effortless passion behind the camera with exciting bursts of ecstatic rapture every time he got “that” shot! I enjoyed the experience of seeing Shaun get a great shot whoever he might’ve been getting it from at the moment. Although I gotta admit, on this amazing day I was grateful it was from me. Â
We got this one particular shot (of many) that I swear was put together by the heavens and our angels…you had to be there for the serendipity of how this all came together…(you know when words just won’t suffice…but i’ll try)
So, out of nowhere during the middle of the shoot he pulls out this random 3/4 length brown and beige coat, we paired it with one of my hats that I, by pure chance alone, threw in the wardrobe bag last minute, to his gut instinct to switch to the perfect background….magic….pure and simple magic….what came next I never experienced before in the 15 years of my entire professional acting career.Â
Snap snap click click….He shows me one of the shots….. and I was literally HIT with a tidal wave of emotion that brought me to a convulsion of tears…whoa tiger…whats going on here?….Is this really happening right now? All I could do in that moment was put my head down, fist to my eyes and weep like a little baby. I know i’m a sensitive guy but damn! What I didn’t know, was that I was waiting for a shot like that for my entire acting career. What he captured in that shot was something I had been expressing on camera for many years, but never caught it in a still image. Something that expressive, raw, perfect wardrobe, masterfully lit between light and shadow….thank you Shaun. The perfect environment was created for me to be at ease and let my unique authentic light shine.Â
This shoot turned out so much better than I imagined! Thank you for your artistry Shaun. It brought out the best in mine!
Shaun Alexander is a top fashion photographer who’s taken a great fashion photograph to a higher level. During his shoots atmosphere is a really important thing to him. It makes the people he works with and himself more creative and relaxed. Even the concentration level will be higher so the results will be exhausting. He is a man of details and he will always keep his energie high so the photoshoot will be worth it from the beginning to the very last end.
He is also a man with patience, because for him is the most important thing to create something amazing all together. As an assistant of Shaun I really can learn so many things from  him. He takes time during the shoots to explain what he is doing and even more important, why. He always want to be sure I get the things he is doing.
I will call him a true artist because his photographs are more than just a photograph, Besides being a top fashion photographer, we can call him a true painter. Inspired by the biggest painters like Rembrandt, van Gogh, Renoir, Monet, he makes his own artwork. Instead of using real brushes he is using light as a main ingredient in his work. With this way of working he is creating almost three dimensional photographs Every piece in the picture will feel like you can really touch it. Every highlight he is using, is used for a reason.
His job in life is to make our world even more beautiful. It gives people confidence, because he shows everyones their true beauty. He knows how to catch everyone’s beauty and still keep the person as they really are

Fashion photographers see the world thru a different set of eyes. and that’s what I love about photography, to be able to capture what I see , even if I am walking down the streets of Los Angels and New York and some of the most beautiful and historic cities in the world
The image below was taken at Grand Central Station in New York City during my last visit to NY. This moving image is made of a few still shots at a high speed and then recreated as a Gif file animation,. This is an old technique used by many website and advertisers, to make those annoying pop up ads…:-) but in much more artistic way!
Grand Central Station truly lives up to it’s name, This Architectural wonder is NY’s pride possession and the passage to 1000’s of travelers every day
I love NY and all it’s beautiful wonders !
Last time I shot anyone in streets of Hollywood, was this lovely young model dressed as the old Hollywood Icon, James Dean for one of my street photography workshops
The shots are candid fashion editorial style with a touch of old fashion styling. I could not be happier with our model and the our fantastic creative crew.
PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOPS 101
I had a blast shooting with Maryam, She was fun, exciting and super photogenic as you can see below, She was even sweet enough to write this
“It was such an amazing experience working with Shaun Alexander. He is truly a perfectionist and the passion in his craft can be seen throughout his work. Before entering his studio and workplace, I had a feeling that we would create magic and surely after the photoshoot magic was created. We commenced the photoshoot with him first doing my hair and makeup, followed by his lovely stylist Tania styling me with various exquisite outfits. Subsequently, we began shooting while he simultaneously taught another photographer about the art of photography and the different aspects of lighting. He got me so intrigued and interested that I started asking questions too, and he gladly taught the both of us. It was truly an unforgettable experience, and a pleasure working with him. I look forward to working with him again in the near future. “
