Paolo Roversi – Fashion Photography? Artist? Both!

In someway every photographer is an artist..,true. But some photographers seem to be ‘more’ artists than others. Paolo Roversi definitely belongs to the second category.

Roversi started his career in the middle of the 1970s as an assistant to the British photographer Lawrence Sackmann.
