I'm captivated by the beautiful photography of Tom Palumbo. Born in Italy in 1921, Palumbo was highly recognized for his photography for Vogue & Harper's Bazaar in the 1950's and 60's.
Tom Palumbo in the early years...
I love his black and white photography...Evening Gowns, Bazaar
One of my favorite photos of the great model, Anne St. Marie in San Francisco, 1964 (Palumbo was married to Anne St. Marie at the time the shots were taken)
An outtake for Bazaar, mid 1950's. "Velvet jacket. Velvet shoes."
Bazaar outtake, July 1958. Great colors...
Harper's Bazaar, 1956/57. "Perfect for Sailing"
Outtake for Vogue...fabulous!
Outtake for Sak's Fifth Avenue...
The Lady and her Butlers...
Outtake for Bazaar...
Anne St. Marie, outtake for Vogue, circa 1960
Palumbo died in 2008. Prior to that he set up his own Flickr gallery. In over 100 fashion photographs, you can peruse outtakes from professional magazine assignments. They are all organized in separate galleries. Extraordinary! He even gives descriptions of the photos, and includes his early and later work. You can view them here. Someone needs to publish a book on this man's work!
