Magician with a camera: A master of modern fashion and portrait photography The mere mention of Mario Testino s name evokes a rush of adrenalin in anyone that cares, even a bit, about the worlds of fashion and celebrity.

Testino s best recent advertising and fashion work rounds out the selection, making this a must-have collector s item for any art or fashion lover s library.
