Henry Clarke was a great fashion photographer of Haute Couture in the 1950's and 1960's. He worked for the American, French and British Vogue Magazine from 1950 to the late 70's.
During an encounter with the great Cecil Beaton during a photography session at Vogue's studio, Clarke was entranced by the photographic image. He abandoned his fashion job, borrowed a Rolleiflex camera and began taking pictures.

One of his gifts was "always making the women  he photographed look beautiful". His images were the epitome of sophistication, with wisps of veil making eyes mysterious and lens magic creating more swanlike necks than ever existed.
