Famed Photographer Annie Leibovitz Shoots Gap Hong Kong Ad Ft. Pharrell Williams

There's just something about photographer Annie Leibovitz's work. She just seems to effortlessly capture the essence of a moment without making anything seem 'staged'.

Check out Pharrell Williams of N.E.R.D. doing a Gap Hong Kong ad, which was shot by Leibovitz. Pharrell has his usual dressed-down, never ragged, 'I'm Just Me' - kind of look. He wears the red Gap hoodie, faded jeans, and his customized boots.



...And there's Great Annie in the middle. What BIG FEET you have! Ok movin' on...

More 'Mature' Models Grace Their Natural Beauty In Print And Runway: MERYL STREEP On VOGUE Jan. 2012 Issue

A lot of young and taut-faced models have always graced the cover of fashion magazines and it seemed timeless and also the standard of the fashion world, leaving more 'experienced' models in the dust after a certain period of time (meaning their 'model time' is almost up).

But lately, more 'mature' female models or 'COUGARS' for slang have boasted their power, extending the length of their modeling tenure with their natural beauty. Even though she is an actress and not a model, MERYL STREEP looks every bit the part of 'mature model'. She will grace the January 2012 issue of the American VOGUE Magazine.

I'm seriously feeling the vibe of Meryl and the serene nature around her. Very ANNIE LEIBOVITZ-ish atmosphere in photography. That's a good direction for many photographers to follow, is to just CAPTURE the essence of a beautiful moment in time.

The Official Obama Christmas 2011 Photo; One Word: BEAUTIFUL

Such a lovely family.

Take in the essence of Barack, Michelle, Maliah, and Sasha Obama in their OFFICIAL CHRISTMAS PHOTO of 2011. The photographer was Pete Souza.

Michelle is such a first lady style icon. Love the black dress as well as the choices of dresses for the girls. Maliah (blue dress) is growing into a beautiful young lady. I think she could definitely pass for MODEL in just a few short years.

(Last year, the official Christmas photo was taken by Annie Leibovitz)
