Thank you for sharing all these amazing stories. I once remember photographing William Defoe at an after party in 2012. He too looked like he hadn't aged since making Platoon in 1986
Thanks for the comment :) - I'm sure you have a good story with that one!
Mr. Borden, your wonderful stories from “behind the scenes” of your legendary photoshoots are VERY MUCH APPRECIATED! ❤ Thank you! P.S. Keep your stories coming
Many thanks!
Thanks for another great insight in becoming a portrait photographer. Just buy listening to you I have learnt so mush and you have given me so much inspiration many thanks
Thank you! Glad you find the videos helpful.
Lovely story. Kings Reach Tower, EMAP, my first shoot for the Obs for £130 in '95. Very nostalgic
captivating story telling, really enjoyed the insight of everything that happens around pressing the shutter
Thank you very much for this exciting story! It is truly inspiring and fascinating to be taken along on this journey to the photographic results! It's wonderful to see that spontaneity, as well as persistence and a certain degree of 'drive to score,' are always part of the process! Very great photos! I also find the two sources of inspiration, 'Sally Mann' and 'Dead Calm,' very intriguing and they round off the whole experience nicely! A really great story! Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic story.
Incredibly interesting - thank you
Wow the algorithm actually worked to suggest a great channel. Can’t wait for the next video
😉Trust the Algo! 🙏
Another fabulous story. Thank you so much.
Mr Kravitz is very photogenic. I agree with others here that the sunglasses are essentially part of him - if anything he looks odd without them - but he's every inch the rock star. I can't believe he's pushing 60 and in his latest video he's dancing around naked and looking fantastic. I know he takes care of himself but I'm close to his age and all the care in LA wouldn't make me look like him. Why does he look so fabulous in old ripped t-shirts? fortunately he seems like a nice fellow too in interviews.
Wow great story wonderfully told! And as a photographer I can relate to the repeated mistakes we make because we’re absorbed to much in the moment! Thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
I remember that first portrait you took, really striking pose in black and white. Can't believe that it is that long ago! Also really like your open way of telling these stories behind the photo!
Thank you!
I really enjoyed this video - thank you for so much insight. You’re a very engaging speaker, and it was so good to hear more of the context behind such an amazing shot. Looking forward to delving into all the other videos!
Thanks a lot!! Hope you enioy the other videos just as much 😁
Although it is always useful to change things up and, in this case lose the sun glasses, they are part of his signature look. I can't think of Kravitz without the shades. The advantage to photographing him without, is that there will be an element of surprise. Some people will even be unsure that they are looking at Kravitz if he doesn't have those shades on.
Nice insights. I especially like that Harry cops to making the same mistake with the sunglasses.
Glad you enjoyed!
These are great! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you like them!
Great story - great photos
Thank you!
@@fredandharryborden I have to say I was a fan of your photos without even knowing it was you - your David Icke holding the painting is for me the perfect photo - you are a massive influence
Was thinking again about not just this video, but all the others. Clearly having a great eye and ability to design an image is vital-as Harry does. Getting on with people is vital also as evidenced by the various scenarios Harry as described. But I think what's really important is having the confidence to ask sometimes difficult celebs and well known people to do things for his vision of the image. It would be great to hear Harry talk about that-the confidence and people management side. Was he always confident requesting people to stand in certain places, use props etc? I guess part of it is the engagement right from the beginning which then helps people to trust/like the photographer and then they're more open to whatever is asked? How has that side of Harry's portraiture developed from the start of his career? Cheers. D
Very good comment. I always laugh at Harrys ability to ask people to do things, it's like he has no filter but most people are normally happy to oblige. Thanks for the video suggestions too I will add the to the list!
I too would like to see more on the people management and skills if that could be arranged!
Great story, well told. Love the images.
Thank you!
Lenny himself is an avid photographer.
I had a wondrful experience on a fashion shoot on Lanzaote.
Dull misty day by coast so headed inland UP over the headland. Of course as we get higher we break through the low lying sea fog to a sharp sunlit landscape. We pass a dirt road off to our left and i scream for us to turn around and go down it. Stylist shouts she has the perfect outfit for the landscape (purple mountains behind) and before wheels have stopped rolling stylist and make up have finaiised their plan. We shoot the lovely model walking toward us at the side of the road. Four frames in, a large 4x4 sarts cannoning down the road in the distance towards us. I tell the photogrpher to hold .. wait .. wait . wait .. then a burst of shots as the car takes form from the heat haze.
Ended up with a shot that looks like a stil from a Bond Movie.
The unpredictable is so exciting .. you're right .. those moments are MAGIC.
Great story! Totally agree those small moments can make for such a great picture. Magic is the word! 😁
Don't leave us hanging! If Mark Seliger saw you as competition, did you win in the end???
Actually, I think I won the stills battle but he had obviously heard about our dip and after, filmed Lenny in the sea for the video (which I'm not sure was originally on the storyboard). th-cam.com/video/ucvLuGgsGS8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rv748L9-oKk-KT-W
Amazing story about Lenny and incredible photos. The thing that made me sit up and listen was your mention of shooting Jellyfish in San Fransisco. I loved that band in the early 90's and I think they're the best band to never make it. Any idea if your photos of them are online?
Thanks for the lovely comments. Harry found the images. I will try to get him to upload them somewhere and send a link :)
@@fredandharryborden Oh, that is amazing! Many humble thanks.
@@audioupgrades Especially for you! ;-) th-cam.com/video/G5qOsUVV7gc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=H49fKzuemeOQfFh6
Fascinating insight...but surely I can't be the only one thinking this (and with the greatest respect)...on that second shoot-did you take any pictures of him without his sunglasses? 😅
Haha! At the end of the video Harry speaks about making the same mistake as the first shoot 😅 he says he didn't learn anything from what the nme commissioner said!
😀There are frames without the sunglasses, but not many. I think he actually had a slightly 'lazy' eye back then, so preferred the shades!
@@fredandharryborden Curse me and my short attention span! Awesome series, look forward to more.
Are you upset he has a limited addition Leica named after him and not you? I did buy both Jellyfish and Lenny Kravitz first albums back in 91. That retro music trend just before Grunge hit.
Haha! We had a similar comment on our Seal video, who also has a Leica edition. I was trying to find the image Harry took of Jellyfish but sadly no luck :(
@@fredandharryborden I imagine there was a top hat involved and flared trousers.
@@fredandharryborden I should have scanned a couple of frames!
Cut yourself some slack - Kravitz probably wouldn't have agreed to remove the shades. Great info on photographer rates back then.
