    Default Who are your favourite pro photographers?

    I'm doing some research on photography for college and I've been asked to bring in some photos that other people have done that i like, over the time I've been into photography i've seen loads i liked but never actually saved them or found out who they were by.

    Ive tried to look on google for pro's and all i get is bloody wedding photo services, so i thought id ask on here.

    Hi 909

    Great thread. My favourite has to be Terence Donovan. Well worth checking out.

    Got a brilliant book of his 'Terence Donovan - London Photographs', B&W's, of the London social scene in the 60's, 70's and 80's. (also two pics of his daughter - Daisy Donovan I'd not realised the connection until i got the book.)
