Barbra Streisand Side Lounge, 2018
“I have had the honour to photograph Ms Streisand for over 15 years for private portraits, album covers, backstage at her concerts and for major magazines. I took this photograph at her home in Malibu overlooking the Pacific Ocean, a place she clearly loves to be.”
RUSSELL JAMES-
James’ interest in people has led to a diverse portrait series featuring renowned musicians, actors, politicians and cultural icons. While the portraits themselves are striking, the series is rooted in the quiet moments off-camera — in the trust and collaboration that unfolds.
“The eyes truly are the window to the soul. It’s the place I search first that has the ability to connect us all in a very special way.”
Portraits of Influence includes figures such as:
Rihanna, Scarlett Johansson, Hugh Jackman, Hillary Clinton, Barbra Streisand, Halle Berry and others.Featured in books: Russell James (2008) and Nomad Two Worlds.
