Anne Christensen on Sixth Avenue outside of the tents during fashion week. The movement of the person in the background suggests how challening it was to weave through people at New York Fashion Week, let alone get a clear picture.

I found Carine Roitfeld fun and really cooperative with my requests. Instead of shooting a full body picture of her, this close-up picture of her wearing a hoodie with the wind blowing her hair was captivating. Notice the cab driver in the background.

This is Brian Ermanski and this is not his kid, nor is it mine. This little boy curiously walked in on the photo wanting to see what was going on. A delightful moment in time caught on camera for years to come.

The editorial style pose in this picture still rivets my attention. You might be able to notice the guy in background looking back, wondering what was going on.

I was walking across Lafayette Street when I heard the putter coming from the engine on this man's moped. Not only are the different historical references in his outfit mesmerizing, but the fact that the foreground is juxtaposed against a background of people and buildings from 2007, give this photo a paradoxical feel.

This is Sato. I like his absolutely couture approach to avant-garde style.

This is one of the first photos I took at London Fashion Week. Not only did I think her outfit was superb, but I deliberately left the street sign in the composition in the background for added visual impact.

Androgyny fascinates me when it is artfully expressed. The perfect hairline on this girl, her still facial expression, and the curved lines which lead to the dual decker bus in London in the background made for an intersting shot.

I always admire people who defy modern fashion in favor of retro-style couture. Notice the leading lines of the row of homes, leading off into the far distance, where you can see Londoners going about their daily business.

The outfit is inspiring and so is the fact that you can see the words "London Fashion Week" on the car doors in the background.

At the end of the Donna Karen show at New York Fashion Week, the fire department showed up. I'm guessing there was a report that the building had violated some fire code and the excess crowd was causing street congestion. While the lights from the F.D.N.Y. truck in the background were going off, I was able to snap this shot of well know model Irina Kulikova.

London Fashion Week was an amazing experience. Sadly it's time to wind down my trip to London, fly back to New York, and prepare for Paris Fashion Week.

So between now and next Saturday, posts will resume back to their normal speed with an increase in pictures per post beginning next Saturday on the opening day of Paris Fashion Week.

See you soon!

Imagine saying Freja Beha Erichsen every time you wanted to refer to Freja?

And by the way, the CORRECT pronunciation of her name is "fry-ah" not "fray-ah" which you can verify by listening to this V-magazine interview with her.

Freja Beha Erichsen

First off, I wanted to say THANK YOU to each and everyone of you who took the time to extend your condolences to me. Words really can't do justice to the sincerity with which I say this thanks from the bottom of my heart. May good karma come back to you all in the form of Rick Owens and Marc Jacobs goods!

Now on to some new street style! I am so excited to get my camera out again. We have New York Fashion Week coming up, London Fashion Week...so much to look forward to in the near future that I'm about ready to camp out at Bryant Park starting this weekend. <---kidding On a more serious note, in the first picture you have Andre. Be sure to click the picture to enlarge the photo so you can better see the details: the colored stitching on his lapels, his rings, his cufflinks. In a word, awesome.

In the second picture you see some subtler style as evinced by Patrick. His perfectly scuplted hair inspired by the 50's beatnick and greaser is the primary focus, his epaulettes on his black button down which color coordinate well with his skin a close second.

Again, Thank You to everyone for your words of condolence and patience with waiting for new material to be posted.

Onwards and upwards, fashion week awaits us all!

Ruby Aldridge, on March 3, 2010. Before she went on to be shot by Juergen Teller for the Marc by Marc Jacobs campaign as well as by nearly every other street style blogger around.

Lindsey Wixson on February 10, 2010, just after debuting with a Miu Miu exclusive.

Ming Xi, during her first ever Paris Ready To Wear show on March 6, 2010, in a Paris Metro Stop. This is before her Givenchy campaign went mainstream.

Samantha Gradoville, on July 14, 2010. She hasn't even finished a complete runway season yet. Last season she Opened and Closed PRADA, one of the most influential shows any model can walk in, let alone a new model who Opens and Closes the show. Here she is at the recent Paris Couture shows.

The Independent, a British based newspaper recently mentioned this about altamira, "Dubbed 'Models off duty,' this blog captures the streetstyle of all kinds of fashion professionals including the industry's best-known models, often predicting soon-to-be-famous new faces."

Not only has this site been recognized as the single most powerful concentrated resource for models street style on the internet, but over time, that reach and influence will just grow more and more.

So stay tuned for updates during the coming fashion season.

As I write this, my hands are actually a bit sweaty. Maybe it's the old fight or flight response mechanism inside of me, knowing that some of the country's top editors will be watching my work. Frankly, I think it's the excitement of knowing that I'll be the first photographer to be hired by Teen Vogue.com for New York, London, and Paris Fashion Week to capture models street style and "it" girls street style--close up shots might be included too. An endeavor to be taken seriously, no doubt.
So for future reference, I'm going to ask that you click on the Teen Vogue.com banner links inside my posts and check out their new street style section for fashion week. The photos will be exclusive for use by Teen Vogue, so you won't be able to see them here. So go check out what's probably the first street style shot EVER, of FORD Supermodel of the World 2009 Winner, 14 year old modeling sensation Tayane Leao at Teen Vogue.com!.

Poppy Delevingne (Storm, London) exits the SS17 Burberry show at London Fashion Week

Cara Delevingne (Storm, London) exits the SS17 Burberry show at London Fashion Week

By the way, it's pronounced Bur-brie (as in the cheese) by the Brits and not Bur-berry (as in the fruit). And to think I was like all "American" sounding going Bur-berry all these years!

I think the contrast between the two sisters style as seen in these pics from today is quite interesting, don't you think?

p.s. and in having nothing to do with the Delevingne sisters and everything to do with street style, make sure to hop over to the new L'Oreal Paris Your Style Your Studio for hair site by clicking HERE. It's genius surfing hair styles uploaded by people from around the world.

Wow, the global sense of style is really heterogeneous. I can't wait to see what diverse and individual styles I can bring to you for the duration of London Fashion Week!

At the moment I'm packing for my trip to London to cover London Fashion Week but couldn't resist making one last post before I leave.

August and September were good months for altamira in the media. Besides having a few of my pictures show up at style.com, my photos ran in the August 20th style section of Aftenposten (print edition) which is Norway's largest paper, I was interviewed by the lovely Alie Suvélor for the September issue of Dirrty Glam, and I was also featured in the September 5th METRO style section (international print edition).

Stay tuned for more fun street fashion pics from the Old World!

As you know, I've been covering all four fashion weeks or what is more easily called Fashion MONTH for 3 years now. This season, L'Oreal Paris approached me about what could become the next huge niche in the fashion industry online: a user generated hair style site. Think about it. First was street. Then was personal style. Now there are a few beauty blogs. And now there is yourstyleyourstudio.com, the first user generated personal hair style site. You can spend endless hours uploading your own looks or surfing some of the coolest hair styles from around the world: Mod Squad, The Modern Bouffant, and Braids Envy to name a few.

Above are just a few examples of inspirational hair from London Fashion Week: opening with Nadia aka the blogger FrouFrouu and closing with Peony Lim's amazing hair.

Take heed my dear readers and go forth and upload your own inspirations now while history is in the making at YourStyleYourStudio.com

This is Egle Tvirbutaite of Elite Model Management, New York. She was in the F/W 2008 Armand Basi (shown at London Fashion Week) advertising campaign, and has done editorials for Vogue Germany, Vogue Italy, Purple Magazine, and Interview.

Arizona Muse (Next, NY) exiting Balenciaga in Paris

Arizona Muse was arguably the new phenomena to watch this last show season. She captured the hearts of a wide set of Casting Directors from London's Russell Marsh to New York's James Scully. She's from New Mexico in case you are wondering and her show credits include opening and closing both Prada and Miu Miu, opening Chloé and closing YSL. I'm sure the Faith Kates team at Next NY will generate some amazing off season action for this new wonder.

Bo Don (Marilyn, NY) exiting Roberto Cavalli in Milan

Dutch wonder Bo Don first debuted on the runways at the Fall/Winter 2010 PARIS shows, but this Spring/Summer 2018 season marked her first full circuit of shows. Her appearence in Balenciaga marked two consecutive seasons in the show and her walks in the most directional shows like Cavalli, Givenchy, Marc Jacobs and Chanel point to what is surely going to be a colorful career to manage for the team over at Marilyn.

Britt Maren (Women, NY) exits Isabel Marant in Paris

Can you say "Hej Britt!" That's Swedish for you guys out there who want to show love by speaking in Britt's homeland language. I'm sure she'll get lots more love from the Women Model NY team lead by agency head Louie Chaban (the genius behind Agyness Deyn). With appearances in the most directional shows cast by a wide set of influential casting directors this season from opening Alexander Wang (Anita Bitton) to Balmain, Lanvin, Marc Jacobs (Michelle Lee) and Donna Karen (John Pfeiffer), I'm sure the editors at the worlds leading magazines will be taking note of her as well....perhaps Steven Meisel soon too?

Bambi Northwood-Blyth (Elite, NY) exits Balenciaga in Paris

Do you come from the land down under? Bambi does and somehow I think her booking value will be up and over the top in the off season. She's got a famous boyfriend (Ksubi co-founder Dan Single), plays in the social scene (maximizes her exposure), caught the eye of Casting Director Ashley Brokaw when she walked Balenciaga, channeled some Lagerfeld Love at Chanel, and apparently is a favorite of LOVE Editor-In-Chief Katie Grand enough to exclusively walk shows Katie styled in London.

Jessica Clarke (DNA, NY) exits Elie Saab

New Zealand hits the radar! Jessica debuted by walking a Calvin Klein exclusive. Scoring a Calvin Klein exclusive is like winning a New York Fashion Week MVP award. Past Calvin Klein runway exclusives have included Karlie Kloss (SS08), Natalia Vodianova (SS07), and Lara Stone (SS07). Jessica walked a tiny selection of other shows this season too, cherry picked from the best London, Milan, and Paris had to offer.

And two more photos before I head out to London for you: Beautiful hair and shooting into the sky after the Ralph Lauren show .

First off, I wanted to wish everyone a happy and prosperous new year. I thought I'd pay homage to the year by quickly sharing with you some of my favorite shots from 2008. With two new fashion months coming up this year and undoubtedly more press too, 2009 stands to be an amazing year with startling photos and inspiration to share. So without further ado, I bring you:

Capturing Agyness Deyn with the sunset background and ensuing bokeh back in June. This was an exclusive shot of Agyness and is special since the Jean Paul Gaultier dress is atypical of her usual style.

Capturing Marc Jacobs and Rachel Zoe together back in spring. This was arguably, the first time the two had been photographed together since the media debacle back in Feb. when Rachel couldn't get into Marc's show. When I saw him again on the corner of Sixth and Bleecker, he said "thanks for that."

This picture of A Magazine's Fashion Editor Annabel Rivera is special to me because it's not just another picture of someone posing for a photo. There is motion: motion in her hair, motion in her shadow on the street, and the lighting was good too.

This picture was taken at Paris Fashion Week--an onslaught of photographers all leaning in the same direction at the same time to "blitzkrieg" Paris Vogue's Emmanuelle Alt. You should have seen the cloud of dust in the air over their heads as they ran across the Tuileries. Wait till I get a picture of that.

Can you say LONDON?

This picture of Net-a-porter.com's Head Buyer Holli Rogers is special to me for a few reasons. First, the background oozes Paris (it was taken outside the YSL show). Second, it was taken at night without a tripod and still turned out sharp. Third, Holli cooperated with me, despite their being a barrage of other flashes and photographers trying to borrow my "set up"

Cheers to 2009 folks! May we all be held in awe at the good things the world has in store for us!
