@ramshergill is one of the very few photographers who has truly captured Cillian at his best. Every frame feels effortless… and every photo is spot on. Cillian was photographed by Ram Shergill for Shortlist Mode Magazine Issue 6 (September 16, 2013) — #cillianmurphy #ramshergill #leicam9 #modemagazine #peakyblinders

Image 5 from my collaboration with Leica — 100 Years of Leica: Witness to a Century. Inspired by Helmut Newton and his iconic Le Smoking image with Yves Saint Laurent, this image follows a legacy of fashion, power, and sophistication. In 1925, Leica introduced the first mass-produced 35mm camera, fundamentally changing the way photography is practiced. One hundred years later, Leica marks this legacy by recognising photography’s power to observe, record, and shape how the world is seen. As part of the centenary programme, fourteen of my photographs have been selected for the global celebrations — marking a century since Leica established a photographic language defined by immediacy, proximity, and the decisive moment. These images reflect my ongoing practice across fashion, portraiture, and wider artistic work, now situated within Leica’s century-long continuum of image-making. @margheritagardella5965 @leica_camera @leicauk @leica_camera_aus @leicagalleryla #Leica #camera #photographer #fashion

Image four from my celebration of Leica 100 Years. From the book India Fantastique (Thames & Hudson), celebrating the work of Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla. As part of Leica 100: Witness to a Century, Leica has selected fourteen of my photographs for its global centenary programme—marking one hundred years since the Leica camera shaped a new photographic language, defined by immediacy, proximity, and the decisive moment. This image forms part of that continuum. Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla’s forty-year partnership spans fashion, cinema, and interiors, shaping the visual identity of Indian luxury. They have designed for India’s leading actors and actresses, collaborated on costumes for epic Bollywood films, and dressed an international circle that includes Dame Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Sophie Marceau, and Sarah Brown. Paramount to their work is the rediscovery and revival of traditional craft—working closely with local artisans and reimagining heritage through Indian antiques, artefacts, and vintage textiles. @abujanisandeepkhosla @juhi.rais @afshanmukherjee @thamesandhudson @leica_camera @leicauk Hair Craig Marsden, Make-Up Megumi @megumi.matsuno @haircraigmarsden @petenavey @andrewkimber_ @1philscott Team Phil Scott, Andrew Kimber, Pete Navey #Leica100 #WitnessToACentury #LeicaPhotography #IndiaFantastique #AbuJaniSandeepKhosla

One hundred years later, Leica marks this legacy under the theme “100 years of Leica: Witness to a century ” recognising photography’s capacity to observe, record, and shape how the world is seen. Leica has selected fourteen of my photographs for inclusion in this centenary programme.

LE FLÂNEUR — FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION A fashion story for @mmagazine / @themenacemag Inspired by Baudelaire’s flâneur and Giorgio Agamben’s idea of freedom in The Open, this editorial follows a wanderer who mirrors the city’s vitality. From market stalls to uniforms and everyday fashion, he translates movement, colour, and gesture into his own adornment. Expression becomes synthesis, a continuous becoming through dress that reflects the freedom and multiplicity of the world around him. Le Flâneur — Freedom of Expression transforms the city’s energy into a language of style. @the_menace_magazine @tauras_luksa @piersatkinson @drnostyle @dphproduction @the_commission_lm
