I have always loved the work of Irving Penn. Hell I even tried to make my own corner style studio out of a painted fridge box to shoot in when I was just learning photography. His portraits are simply amazing. He will always remain in the top of my list for both influence and inspiration.

I have been a fan of Penn`s work for ages, his tones in his black and whites are superb!
