BOOK SYNOPSIS
Despite its significance, visual and cultural studies have paid little attention to fashion photography as a media form. Fashion as Photograph brings together distinguished contributors from the UK, North America, Australia and Europe, to examine the production and consumption of fashion images from the points of view of industry and academia, the museum, the auction house, and the art gallery. Chapters identify and discuss key issues in recent fashion photography, examining its aesthetic, political, creative, and commercial dimensions.

AUTHOR BIO
Eugénie Shinkle is a photographer, writer, and Senior Lecturer in Photographic Theory and Criticism at the University of Westminster in London. She is a regular contributor to books and journals in the fields of photography and digital game studies, and has been exhibiting her photographic work internationally since 1992.
