  • Baba Laxman Giri portrait, Ganges river, Varanasi.<br />
<br />
Baba Laxman performs Aghori Puja....covering of the body in ash. Sadhu believe that performing this ceremony will ensure that they are not reincarnated after death.<br />
<br />
Here the ash is from ordinary wood but the Aghori often use ash from funeral burning ceremonies.<br />
<br />
Aghori Sadhu grow their hair long for Shiva. Baba Laxman Giri is 40 and has been growing his hair since he became Sadhu at the age of 8 years old.

  • Whilst photographing this client in Dubai, I noticed the well know photograph of Faye Dunaway and her oscar taken by the famous Terry O'Neil in 1977.<br />
<br />
As the client has a great sense of humour, I suggested this set up to him...and he agreed.<br />
<br />
I like to use incredible works of art by other accomplished artists as backgrounds for some of my portraits...and this was perfect.<br />
<br />
In my scene, one of his favourite champagnes is his oscar, the polo, his passion and love. The magazines scattered on the floor were in the office and simply at hand.<br />
<br />
The lighting was set up to highlight specific aspects of both O'Neil's classic shot and the unique character of my client.
