The other day I happened to catch a glimpse of America’s Next Top Model and during panel I became somewhat transfixed on a certain judge. No.. not Miss Jay (although that would be a good story for later, eh?) but on Nigel Barker. For those that watch ANTM, you have heard Tyra introduce Nigel Barker with the title of “the noted fashion photographer" for the past 12 seasons and the title has somewhat become infused with his name. Consequently, I got to thinking... does homeboy really live up to his synonymously infused titled? So I decided to do some investigating...
After taking a good look at his online portfolio, StudioNB, I have to say that I am quite impressed with his array of work. Much more than I anticipated. I’m totally diggin’ his versatility as there is quite a variety of styles shown: from beautifully enthralling commercial shots to noteworthy high-fashion campaigns. Impressive indeed. And I also discovered that his photo credits include the likes of GQ, Interview, Paper, People, Sean John, Pierre Cardin, Nicole Miller, and Ted Baker to name a few. Not too shabby, eh? So with all that said my conclusion should come to no surprise... in my opinion he undeniably deserves the bestowed title of "noted fashion photographer." Tyra preached right y'all. Amen.
Take a gander for yourself at StudioNB.
