Portraits.

After looking through some of my "inspiration" photos that I store on my computer, I noticed that I had a bunch of "portrait shots" of celebrities/music artists whom I love or whose style I really admire. Only after clicking through them in a group did I notice they were also all British. Go figure! Most of them are black and white, but a few aren't-- but I didn't want to limit them in any way. I just think these shots are so beautiful and dynamic. They are cropped close to the face so the only subject in the photo is the person themselves. I admire the natural beauty of these UK stars, and hopefully you will too!

Andrew Garfield... amazing hair.


Michael Caine with bold glasses and smoking a fag.
(Brit talk for cigarette... I try and remember these things!)

Rosamund Pike. Isn't she just absolutely beautiful?

Tom Chaplin of Keane. YES to that raised collar.

Emma Watson. I just love her strong brows!

Daisy Lowe. A true British beauty.

Alexa Chung. She's so quirky!

Audrey Hepburn.

The Harry Potter 7 movie posters. They are so dramatic and graphic, I just love them. They're so dark and angular.

Lily Allen. I don't know if that's her natural eye color,
but either way it's lovely!


John Lennon.

Paul McCartney.

Carey Mulligan. I'm not sure where this photo is from, but
her make-up is vintage perfection.

Ed Westwick. Though I don't really like Gossip Girl, there's
no denying his style.
Yup, that's me. Just thought I'd throw that in there in hopes I'll join the
status of these stars someday!
