Nathan Wessel by David Vance.
David Vance is one of favorite photographers. I have written in the past that David's work not only brings passion and joy into the lives of those who view it, it as well inspires. David is a true artist. To me, he is not only able to bring out the beauty in others, but more than than, his true gift, is his ability to channel his own through them. He then shares the results with the rest of us.
Last year I profiled David's work with Nathan Wessel. (see below). David has an incredible book 'Muse' which chronicles his work with Nathan. You can check out some shots from that book, as well as see other of David's books HERE: David tells me that Nathan is also a part of "Erotic Dreams," his new book due out in October from Bruno Gmuender.
"Erotic Dreams" is up at Amazon for pre-order so check it out!
As well as shooting some of the worlds most beautiful men, David is a celebrity photographer. One of his first assignments was photographing the cast of the original Broadway production of "Oh! Calcutta." Celebrity portraits include William Baldwin, Steven Bauer, Toni Braxton, Gloria Estefan, Daisey Fuentes, Andy Garcia, Hal Holbrook, Sophia Loren, Ricky Martin, Johnny Mathis, Luciano Pavarotti, Steven Seagal, Eli Wallach and Dionne Warwick. Sports figures include Billy Bean, Chris Evert, Mitch Gaylord & Greg Louganis. David also has shot many portrait and cast shots for Theatre productions in Florida, including the cast of 'Some Men' in 2008.
It was while they were appearing on stage in Florida that David shot Beatrice Arthur and Rue McClanahan. I thank David for sharing these shots with FH and giving us a little glimpse behind of the scenes.
