Matthew Priestley is an accomplished portrait shooter and specializes in fashion portraits as well as shots of musicians. His talent for portraits is clear in this collection. He makes Annabella Barber -- an Australian model with few major credits to her name -- look like the kind of rising star destined for greatness.
The Annabella Barber Matthew Priestley portrait series is the kind of photograph collection that can help make a middling model transition to bigger major fashion editorials. She is signed to New York Model Management in NY, a boutique agency, but if this shoot is any indication, it shouldn't be long before the rest of the Big Apple starts knocking on her door.
