Herb Ritts: LA Style

Photographer Herb Ritts was known for some of the most iconic images in modern pop culture. His black and white portraits were arresting as were the countless music videos he directed which became signifiers of a generation. The documentary, Herb Ritts: L.A. Style, directed by Aion Velie, takes a look at the life of the artist and features interviews from many of his subjects and friends including supermodel Tatjana Patitz (with hair  by Rob Talty and makeup by Jo Strettell).
