Robert Erdmann To Shoot For Black!




OK, we're excited. As a portrait photographer Robert Erdmann is probably second only to Annie Leibowitz with a list of celebrity editorials and covers as along as your (tripod) arm. As a fashion and beauty photographer his body of work - including some 40 covers - places him in that elite group of photographers that breathe the rarified air of Steven Meisel, Bruce Weber or Mario Testino - see our poll here to the right. Tomorrow he flies to New York with his team of assistants and operators in tow to meet up with our New York Fashion Editor Dean Voycovich. Together they will shoot a 16 page, two boys/one girl editorial for Black. It seems Robert saw Black Magazine and decided he really wanted to shoot for us. We couldn't be more honoured and will be expanding the size of Issue 9 by 16 pages...
