Mikael Jansson’s, “Speed of Life”

other artists | April 14th, 2009

Mikael Jansson (w/ Wilson/Wenzel), has been respected in the fashion world for decades, and lately has become know as the cover/feature shooter for Interview, where he’s been defining himself as excellent portrait/celebrity shooter, so I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed his book, Speed of Life, b/c I don’t necessarily figure many fashion guys can shoot motor-sports, and, furthermore, b/c I’m not even into cars, not even a little bit. Maybe it’s not world changing work, but I don’t think photos have to be to be good; sometimes I think it’s enough to see s photographer work on something you can see they’re passionate about.
