Today’s inspiration comes from two hugely influential photographers, Irving Penn and Bill Henson, They both share today as a birthday - so what better way to celebrate than to share their work with the CCP community.

Irving Penn is famous for his stunning fashion photography, however, his body of work, covering 1943 - 2009 contains everything from portraits, still life, street photography and more. He is one of the true masters of his time.

Australian photographer Bill Henson is famous for his stunning lighting style and emotive portraits of young people. Over the years his work has created vigorous public debate, especially over who should be the subjects of photographs. His story remains the topic of intense conversation though many artistic communities.
