To whom to subscribe: Fashion photographer Harley Weir

CONTINUE TO TELL about decent accounts in social networks through which you can view the whole world. Today we could not get past the account of the British Harley Weir - her photos are difficult to confuse with anyone else.

A graduate of Central Saint Martens, Harley Weir became a photographer in part because of her father - the camera she was shooting for a long time belonged to him. Now Harley has a real upsurge: she’s the author of expensive advertising campaigns like Jacquemus or Stella McCartney with Natalia Vodianova, and just fashionable shots of incredible beauty. Weir shot several POP, Self Service and Wallpaper * covers — all over the past two years. Perhaps, due to this fact, the Briton got into the list of "100 most promising young professionals" according to Dazed & Confused. In her free time, Harley travels a lot, for example, to Africa or to the west bank of the Jordan River - she was shooting ordinary people there, not at the request of another fashion magazine, but just for herself. Weir shoots a lot on film, which greatly influences the colors of her work, and thanks to her distinctive, easily recognizable style, even the imitators appeared. Harley loves to photograph parts of the human body, the body itself is interested in it, rather, in a metaphorical way, and this is clearly seen from the British instagram.

In a mini-interview with Dazed & Confused magazine, she admitted that she was “just in love with her iPhone.” In the instagram Weir lays out his work and photos of everything that inspires her - from children to unusual stones and landscapes. In addition, Harley has been experimenting with the video for more than a year already; her work can be viewed on Vimeo - it’s just as interesting to follow her as on Instagram.
