Mario Testino: Portraits - An Amazing Exibition!!,
By Fernando DIAZ SOTO (Glasgow (Scotland)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mario Testino Portraits (Hardcover)
This book shows the portraits of the exibitions that took place in 2002 in London (England) and in 2003 Edinburgh (Scotland). I went to the one in Edinburgh and it was amazing. If you have the oportunity to go and see it your country don't miss it.

its good, but is it art?,
By kit (Shrewsbury, Shropshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mario Testino Portraits (Hardcover)
Everyone praises mario testino because he captures the true person inside of his subjects. This may be true for celebrities and fashion favourites, but can it be said for the lesser mortals? to begin he fails to photograph anyone unless, it seems its for money in this book. the portraits lose intimacy and emotional depth. The photographs may be glamorous but most fail to have soul and true deeper meaning. None of the photographs are of normal people, and everyone has a cheesy grin.approach with caution.

stunning simply stunning,
By "ladirectorboy" (Toronto, ON Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mario Testino Portraits (Hardcover)
if this is the year that the name Mario Testino passes from the surgically altered lips of fashion's congnescenti to the bowels of the masses, this book will show you what the hype was really all about.the prints are amazing, vibrant and detailed. the portraiture is stunning and all mario. i know that his previous books were always a bit of a disappointment since they tended to hilight a completely different style then the one by which he was so successfully making his living. as a believer and a fan, this book is the proof that mario may be fashion's greatest living photographer. here it is and well worth the wait. the perfect south beach cofee table book.
