André Leon Talley

André Leon Talley This picture of André Leon Talley was shot at the Royalton Hotel on 44th Street in Manhattan for RayBan on a Saturday morning in 1994. The Creative Director and André had decided to do his picture in bed at the hotel, and on our way uptown André said “I should be surrounded with art books”, so we detoured to Rizzoli and spent a thousand dollars. After photographing him in bed as planned, we decided to have lunch downstairs, and I made this portrait then.Reproduced Directly from the Original Negative or Digital Source. About William WaldronWilliam Waldron is a professional photographer who resides in New York City and the Hudson Valley.  A photographer since childhood who spent much of his spare time in a basement darkroom, Waldron was educated at the University of Minnesota and the Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California.  William moved to New York in 1981 determined to work for the legendary photographer Art Kane.  After four years working as a photo assistant, Waldron traveled to northern Mexico and photographed both Tarahumara Indians and the Mennonites of Chihuahua.  Returning to New York determined to earn a living taking photographs, Waldron began to cultivate a keen interest in interior spaces, and eventually became an internationally known interiors photographer.  His work regularly appears in magazines such as Elle Decor, Architectural Digest, Vogue, The New York Times, and Vanity Fair. Waldron’s personal work is largely concerned with the vernacular forms of the inhabited landscape, and the inherently sensuous nature of quietude.  His photographs often contemplate the quiet and occasionally lonely spaces of introspection and illustrate his idea that the height of beauty invariably contains a hint of melancholy.
