“David Hamilton (15 April 1933–25 November 2016) was a British photographer and film director best known for his nude images of young women and girls
His artistic skills began to emerge during a job at an architect’s office. At age 20, he went to Paris, where he worked as graphic designer for Peter Knapp of Elle magazine. After becoming known and successful, he was hired away from Elle by Queen magazine in London as art director.

Hamilton began photographing commercially while still employed, and the dreamy, grainy style of his images quickly brought him success.”……………..More
