Mario Testino







So many interpretations around Peru born Mario Testino. often classed among the Luxury Realists of fashion (along with Steven Meisel, Craig McDean and David Sims), Testino refuses to analyse his work.


Recently, I have read a book by Pierre Assouline called "Rosebud". In this book, Assouline tries to point out the very fact, the un-noticed detail that can explain someone's life. Maybe, Mario Testino's rosebud could be "laughing". He often says that a photo shoot when he laughs with the models is a photo shoot that is successful.

It's quite an astute observation. Perhaps, it's one of the moments, when we let down our guard, let the inside come out uncontrollably. He certainly catches something rare during the guffawing.
