Is it wrong that I want to copy Avedon's style?

For those who are out of the loop, he shoots outside in natural light with a white drape behind the subject with a reflector in front for catch-eye.

If you want to be a tool, and you own a 8x10 field camera then go for it.

Otherwise, you're a faggot.

No, but I'm biased because if I ever did any studio portraits I'd do something very similar to him.

Avedon did shoot fashion photos, but I wouldn't call his work as a whole fashion photography at all.

I'd be impressed if you could even come close. Go for it. It's harder than it looks.
