Approbative Photography Links

As a young adolescent I always dreamed of a burgeoning career as a Playboy magazine photographer. While those dreams have passed, my appreciation for fine photography hasn't. With that, I present to you a few exquisite photographers who manage to capture genius, emotion, and beauty without the use of naked women.

Velco Dojcinovski: An Australian photographer with an eye for cinematic, urban narratives. My favorite photographer right now.
Paulo Alegria: Some great pictures of life in Portugal.
Guy Eppel: British rock photographer.... what an excellent career choice.
Mike Innocenzi: An eye for Chicago.
John Gripenholm: A Sweedish Photographer with some really amazing fashion shots and portraits.
