Heidi Klum by Rankin

Description

Photographer Rankin presents a publication of nude photography featuring supermodel Heidi Klum. Compelling, erotic and personal, Heidi Klum by Rankin, offers a chance to see behind the scenes and under the clothes of model, designer, and personality, Heidi Klum. Originally conceived as a purely personal project, this publication brings together iconic images and never before seen shots to create the most revealing portrait of international superstar Heidi Klum to date. With photographs taken over a period of ten years, this second solo book project between Rankin and Heidi, explores femininity, sexuality, confidence and strength through the intimacy and humour that has characterised their working relationship. With an unparalleled rapport between photographer and subject, Rankin's images allow Heidi to strip bare and uncover the fun and the vulnerability that makes her image so recognisable. Shot on location and within the studio, these nudes follow on from Rankin's recent release #NSFW (teNeues, 2016) to cement his formidable reputation as one of the world's leading photographers. A visually arresting contemporary take on boudoir photography, an exclusive early release of this hardback coffee table book will be released September 2017. Review: Great book for the Heidi fan - It's Heidi Klum...Naked, in a huge book. What's not to like if that is what you are assuming the book is. The photography is good, Rankin is a good photographer without doubt. The variety of images are good, some artsy, others not, nothing that screams "trying too hard". Paper is a very nice heavyweight matte finish paper stock. A very different look than typical glossy paper which is what most books would have. I personally like it and is the type of paper I print my "high end art stuff" on when I want to look impressive and artsy. The cover and binding seem fine as expected for a book of this cost. The front cover image is basically a photo glued onto the cover, which is cool, but hope doesn't peal up over time and usage. Some have desired Heidi to reveal a bit "more" in some shots, and hard to argue, but in a way a good teasing is better in the long run so I don't discount it for that reason. Only complaint is I wish Heidi had started creating these style images at a much younger age so the book would cover her throughout her career, from beginning to present day. Oh well. Review: Inspiring Beauty - Larger then expected but content was superb. Well pleased. Inspiring beauty
