Photography: Ethereal beauties captured by the lens of Hannah Putz

—
Date
5 March 2014

Self-taught photographer Hanna Putz has got a magic touch. What other photographer other than greats such as Juergen Teller has an actual style when it comes to photography? Hanna Puz’s work isn’t even 100 miles away from Teller’s in that it speaks a dark, mystic language and highlights small beauties like dust floating through a ray of sun or a jutting collarbone. From bearded men, to children, to impeccably-designed clothing and house plants, Hanna’s work really comes into its own when she focuses on women. The females she captures seem like an altogether different species, one that’s a slightly unnerving juxtaposition between ethereal and eternally powerful. Read more about his fascinating creative and what she gets up to when she’s not behind the camera over on her website.
