Dutch fashion photographer Ronald Stoops has done editorials for magazines such as Self Service, i-D, Dazed & Confused, Vogue Homme, etc. He is based in Antwerp, and often teams up with his wife Inge Grognard who is a make up artist. I love Ronald’s conceptual and creative style, and I think his work really stands out.

Here’s some of his work:

I just stumbled over Guy Aroch’s portfolio over at Julian Meijer Agency. His work creative and catchy, and I love the mystery in some of the shots. His photography has been seen on covers and features of newspapers and international magazines, such as Men’s Vogue, Italian Glamour, Italian GQ, Italian Amica, WWD Beauty, French Elle, Interview, Nylon and The New York Times. His advertising clients include Victoria’s Secret, Nivea Visage, Jean Louis David, Wella, Bloomingdale’s, Regis, Kenneth Cole, L’Oréal, Garnier, Esprit, Sonia Rykiel, and H&M.

Katja Rahlwes has been in the fashion business for decades, and started her career as a professional fashion stylist in 1995 after having studied Fashion Design at Studio Bercot in Paris. In 1998 she became chief-fashion editor and photo-editor at BIBA, a major market fashion magazine in Paris. At the same time, she continued to expand her vision as an independent stylist with magazines like Dutch, i-D, Dazed and Confused, Made in USA, Vogue Japan, Index and others. Throughout those years at BIBA she would live a parallel life as a professional stylist and part-time photographer. She said it was, “like having a husband and a lover.” In the first years she mainly shot women she wanted to meet and spend time with. Photography had a very important impact on Rahlwes, and made her feel free and independent in her work. [Wikipedia]

Now you can see her work in magazines like French Vogue, Vogue Nippon, Vogue US, Self Service, Purple fashion, i-D, etc. And she has done work for clients such as Gucci, Miu Miu, Chloé, A.P.C., Martin Margiela, Hysteric Glamour, Levi’s, and others.

Bottom line, her photos are great, here’s a taste of her work:

Stockholm based Rickard Sund has done work for clients like H&M and Heineken, but for me his work for Plaza Magazine stands out. Rickard is very much inspired by the cinematic expression, and this is why the most of his images are in a landscape format. He also has a love for graphic and architectural elements, which is apparent through his great portfolio.

Here’s some of his work:
