Dimitri Daniloff's images often feature futurist dehumanized environments which are created by him. His hyperreal bodies and dreamworld lighting transport into an artificial and posthuman future. I remember shoting Sprite with him which was great fun. The ads he shot for Playstation made him well known if not famous. Also see his work here and here.
Rankin established his reputation when he launched Dazed & Confused. His iconic, intimate portraiture style, and his mischievous eye have gained him a reputation as one of the world's leading photographers. Saw RANKIN LIFE in london.
Got to love Martin Parr. I went to an exhibition of his work in Berlin two years ago. Martin Parr is mostly known for his photographic projects that take a critical look at modern society, specifically consumerism, foreign travel and tourism, motoring, family and relationships, and food.
