Professional Photo  |  Issue 186
Go on a voyage of discovery in the latest issue of Professional Photo as we dip into the archives at Iconic Images to reveal a selection of extraordinary previously unseen vintage pictures and contact sheets from celebrated shoots of the past. It’s all come about following the launch of the new Iconic Licencing website and the digitisation of thousands of contact sheets and transparencies from the 1960s and beyond. Take a look at what we’ve found and go and explore yourself! And you’ll do a double take, as we stick with the vintage theme to tell the tale of how one photographer set up a shoot with a model who was the doppelganger of Audrey Hepburn. Our Project this month features the eye-catching work of Jonk, who specialises in capturing the gentle decay of derelict buildings, while Paul Wilkinson is sharing the story of how he occasionally works his passage as a photographer on cruise ships, which gave him the opportunity to set up a shoot with one of the ship’s entertainers on the glorious island of Rhodes. Meanwhile Pro Academy is moving onto its second challenge with a shout out for your best portrait shots, while we’re revealing our latest spot prize winner and giving you one final chance to get your entries in for our mega £8000 Professional Photographer of the Year competition, which closes at the end of August. Our main test this month is the mighty new Sony professional flagship the Alpha 1, while we’re also rounding up the opportunities presented by the burgeoning used kit market, and are talking to a selection of the top second-hand specialists to reveal the best and most economical way to stay ahead of the game by trading up. In other words we’re packed full to bursting as always, so dive in and take a look!
