A shot, a complete break with the way fashion was shown at the time. With his talent as a director, he alternates sequenced close-ups as well as subjective shots. The most important quality in his images is above all his frankness, his almost shocking honesty, his subjects seem to open up emotionally in front of his lens. It's not the appearance that counts, but the spirit of the person you are photographing. He spent his childhood in Duisburg in North Rhine-Westphalia.

In 1990, he repeated the feat this time for the cover of British Vogue by taking an iconic shot that brought together Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Tatjana Patitz, Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington, little known but who will be the supermodels who will develop in the during the 90s.
