Review : James Meyer
James Meyer has a unique background before coming to commercial fashion photography. Years ago, he was a videographer and a digital collage artist. I would later hear that he was doing event photography for clubs and entertainment venues in Australia, and again later find he had started Eclipse, a fashion photography magazine in the United States. While Jimmy has always had a great eye, his talent and craft have evolved into an entirely new class.
His best photos have an elegance that could be described as Calvin Klein meets Kubrick. A 2017 photoshoot with model Cierra Morris produced some of his boldest photos. The shapely composition and stark linear design empower the figure. The hair and wardrobe are showcased prominently and uniquely. “Warm” featuring, Gabrielle Rénee Carpenter is striking. Shadows and shapes envelop and unfold like a Thomas Hart Benton or Georgia O’Keeffe.
His recent magazine publication reveals his grand vision and entrepreneurial efforts. Eclipse is available online and in print in Kansas City. You can find more of Meyer’s work at his website and here on SharksEatMeat.
