Overgaard Posted November 20, 2008 Share #1 Posted November 20, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Brad Pitt is actually a very talented and skilled photographer! I finally got the W Magazine November 2008 "The Art Issue" with Angelina Jolie on the front page. I've seen the pictures online but the real prints in the magazine is great - as well as complete. There's actually a lot of shots. The story is there as well, how Bradd Pitt shot her over a week on special film, etc. I know he's a celebrity, and a lot of people will say that it's unfair an actor get to shoot the cover over a pro photographer, that just because he has the looks and money ... and bla bla. But frankly, a handful of those shots are so good that if I had one of them in a shoot, I would regard it one of the best in my career or that year. And even if I had a train full of assistants and light equipment as well as personal chef, unlimited access and all, I would still consider it an accomplishment. Talent, luck and skill combined. So du yourself the favor to get the actual magazine with the 8x12" prints in black and white here in November as it will be out of stores in a week or something when the December edition hits the street, usually some days before December starts.
