Particular photographs that inspire me are those by Terry O'Neill. I find the way that O'Neill captures the off-screen glamour of huge industry icons so interesting. My favourite is of Faye Dunaway - O'Neill's girlfriend at the time lounging next to the pool, the morning after winning her Oscar for the film "Network". The image was taken in both black and white, showing Dunaway surrounded by newspapers with her Oscar placed on the table next to her breakfast tray. Overall, I just love that way that the photograph is not all about the significance of the Oscar and that there are so many other little details included in the photo.
Other pieces of O'Neill's work include Audrey Hepburn backstage during the filming of "Two For The Road", Joan Collins, British actors Peter Cook and Dudley Moore and finally one of the most famous taken by O'Neill, Bridgit Bardot with a cigarette hanging from her mouth.
