Classic Portrait Series
This series of images represents the core work of photographer Ivan Weiss - portraits of actors, musicians, dancers and writers.
The images reflect a fascination with classical composition, a delight in the technical possibilities afforded by modern photographic techniques and a sensitivity for human emotion that Ivan effortlessly teases out of his subjects.
While noted for a distinctive style in his use of colour, light and shadow, authentic expression is at the heart of this particular series.
