Stockholm based fashion photographer Jenni Porkka is open to get inspired by anything, but points out the works of late Alexander McQueen and Lady Gaga as two main sources. During the two years she’s been working professionally her work has been featured in publications such as Zink, Hint, Kurv, Spex, Lush, SVA, Idoll, Level, Glamcult, Fan The Fire, Make Up Store, Iconique, Dorian, and Style.

Jenni’s work is an evidence of her ability to push limits creatively, and I’m excited to see more of it in the future.

Here’s some of it:

Buenos Aires based photographer Pablo Franco has been working professionally for about 7 years now, and his work has been featured in publications such as BABYBABYBABY, Celeste, Vice, Frankie, Stab, Movement, among many others. Apart from being inspired by his son Ramon, he says this about his inspirations: “The energy surrounding a photo shoot really inspires me, usually the results are far better than I imagined.”

At the moment he’s doing some commercial projects for Nike and Revlon, plus a new cover and editorial for Soko Zine!

Here’s some of his work:

London based fashion photographer Robert Harper has been shooting for about a year now, after having assisted for about four years. His work has been printed in Random Magazine, and published on sites such as Style Noir, The Fash Pack, and The Pop. I love his how his work ranges from raw and sexy, to more velvet soft and beautiful. He says this about his inspirations: “The moment inspires me, when you’re shooting you catch an instant where you really feel it all coming together and there’s nothing like it. That and other photographs. I love looking at images (not only fashion) as I see the sweat and blood that went into it so to me it’s a real piece of work, a real story.”

Currently he’s working on some stuff for both The Fash Pack and The Pop. I can’t wait to see more of his work.

Here’s some of it:

Swedish-Sri Lankan photographer Robin Jonsson’s work has been featured in Nylon, Zoot, Flux, Sublime, Amelia’s magazine, Kurv, Magnificent, on Groove.de and S Journal. He is currently based in Sweden, but is planning to settle down in Buenos Aires via New York after summer. When asked what inspires him he answers: “We photographers have a tendancy to have really dumb answers the question “What inspires you?” For instance: ”Everything. My surroundings. Love. Hate. Emotions flowing. The color of people’s souls. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.” So I guess I should just say that.”

Robin graduated from photography school back in 2006, but he claims he spent most of 2006 and 2007 just messing around. So it wasn’t before late 2007 he started taking his photography more seriously. And now Robin’s a busy man: “I’m having two exhibitions this summer that I’m currently working on. Also, I’m working on my first book project, entitled ”The Adventures of Charles the Bear: Part I”, which is going to be a children’s book for adults. I’d also like to be handsome on the beach this summer, so I’m working on that as well.”

Here’s some of his work:

It’s Friday, and it’s time for a real goodie! French fashion photographer Remi Rebillard has provided Ben Trovato Blog with an exclusive unpublished fashion story, just for you readers. In true BTB spirit the story has been given an Italian title: “Lei Che Persevera Vince,” which means “She who perseveres wins” in English.

Remi’s work was featured on BTB for the first time back in September 2009, check it out here.

Remi was born and raised in Paris, France. His first introduction to photography came while assisting the famous French motion picture director, Jean Becker. In 1991 Remi started working with various European fashion magazines. Deriving his inspiration from living in the most beautiful city in the world, he put it to use while shooting some of the most beautiful women of the world. In 1992 Remi moved to New York with his wife, Cara Leigh. With the help of people like Faith Kates from Next, he began shooting the new generation of stars.

When entering in Remi’s world, you will touch his unique style in photography. He uses his camera like a painting palette. Although this story is in black and white, he is known for his mix of colours that can affects you deeply and give you multiple, and sometimes controversial feelings fighting inside your mind and heart. Many times you are going to feel that you are watching a fantasy movie directed by an extraordinary director.

Using a combination of mag-lights, gels and daylight from his Greenwich Village artist’s loft, Remi developed his unique light and became recognized as a beauty photographer. Remi Rebillard succeeded in creating pieces of photography art full of life, argument & magic. So be careful while stepping inside world of Remi Rebillard.

So here we go, “Lei Che Persevera Vince” by Remi Rebillard, on Ben Trovato Blog:

Bangkok based fashion photographer Jens Ingvarsson has been working professionally for about 1,5 years, but owning and managing his own model agency (Exodus Model Management) has kept him from really going for it. “Thus I had no shortage of models willing to de some fun test-shoots, but now I’d like to push things further and get some exposure as an aspiring fashion photographer.”

Some of his work is greatly inspired by the works of Terry Richarson, Juergen Teller and Helmut Newton, but it is all a process of testing different styles and techniques before really finding his own personal style: “I tried working inseveral different styles and only lately hav I started to figure out what I want my photography to look like. Most of the time photography is a source of fun and joy for me, and not something I do for living, at least yet.”

Here’s some of his work:

Belarusian photographer Yulia Gorodonski has an incredible collection of self-portraits. She gets inspired by her surroundings, films, music, props, and of course the way she’s feeling. She’s been working professionally for about a year, and her work has been featured in Chaos Magazine.

Yulia is currently based in Israel, and at the moment she’s finishing up a book of her fantastic self-portaits.

Here are some of them:

British fashion photographer Sacha Maric divides his time between London and Copenhagen. He has been working professionally for about 4 years, and says this about his inspirations: “I’m inspired by unconventional approaches to art. be that photography, film or music. Nothing is more exciting than having your eyes open to a new perspective or take on things. Also, my surroundings, the mundane things that cross my path in everyday life. Friends, family and my daughter. The dark and cold Scandinavian winter and the rejuvenation that I feel when spring arrives.”

His editorial work has been published in publications such as ArtReview, Cover, Dansk, Dazed & Confused, Kilimanjaro, Pig, Style & The Family Tunes, WAD and Wallpaper, and his commercial clients include Danish Fashion Institute, Diesel, Fritz Hansen, Levi’s, Libertine-Libertine, Mads Nørgaard, Norse Projects, Won Hundred and Wood Wood.

At the moment Sacha is developing some ideas for some fashion stories he will be shooting coming months, plus his first book will be back from the printers next week. Exciting times (I’ll keep you posted on facebook and twitter)!

Here’s some of his work:

Saint Petersburg based photographer Alina Shamalova has been shooting professionally for about three years now, sharing her view on the world through the lens of her Mamiya 645. Despite having inspired thousands through her profiles on flickr and deviantart, her work hasn’t been published anywhere, yet. Because she has got talent enough to make it big in this industry.

When asked about what inspires her, she answers: “Inspiration comes only during the work. But I am primarily inspired by extraordinary people. Their unusual appearance or behavior caused my interest. Secondly, I try to notice what is happening around me. Sometimes it is so beautiful that you forget to breathe. I work with professional models and real people. Both are interesting.”

Here’s some of her work:

Waldemar Hansson just provided me with his latest story for Kurv #20. Waldemar’s photography has been featured at Ben Trovato Blog before, then with photography colleague Max Modén, when they shot the story “Ghost“ together. “Le Cœur Est un Rebelle” stars model Barbora Pracharova.
