David bailey's work is mainly all portrait work with his models being in the studio. Most of his work is in black and white, based around the 1960's. I like the usage of light in the darkened images and how the model seems to be in control of what the image would look like.
None of his images are neat, models posing anyway they like. David allows them to take over while he takes a photo.
His work varies, like some times the background behind the model will be darker or lighter like the two examples of his work above and below. He allows the model to pose how they like, letting them choose which side or their face they like. His work is very relaxed and often tells a little story.
His photos are relaxed and his models show emotions like these two.
I like this image above because unlike other photos, the whole point of the image is to see the models face but in this image, Bailey has taken this image to tell us a story rather than just showing us the girls face.
