Behind the Lens: 20 of Mario Testino's Most Stylish Shots Yet

Marisa Tom — Tue, 24 Apr 2012 10:17:30 PDT

Thanks to the newly relaunched MarioTestino.com, we can peep Mario's stylish work in one place. As one of the rare shutterbugs to reach iconic status - joining the ranks of Irving Penn, Herb Ritts, Annie Leibovitz, Richard Avedon, and Rankin - the Peruvian photographer has snapped A-list celebs, glossy fashion editorials, and high-profile ad campaigns for more than 30 years. Now, after showcasing his work in the London Portrait Gallery, in countless magazines (including Vogue, V Magazine, and Vanity Fair), and in 11 photo anthologies, we can see his close friend and muse Kate Moss reapplying lipstick, Prince William and Kate Middleton on their engagement day, Gwyneth Paltrow celebrating her '98 Oscar win, and a young Gisele Bundchen in her native Brazil all in one go. We love that the revamped site reads like a who's-who in star-studded names, but best of all? He has the ability to make even the most casual photo shoots look utterly glamorous. Take a look at our favorite Mario shots thus far; then, head over to his site to see his portfolio in full.

Rosie, who'd just flown in from LA, gave kisses and hugs to her pal Mario Testino once inside. Kate, Rosie, and other celebs like Alexa Chung and Clemence Poesy were treated to Christopher's rendition of the iconic Burberry trench coats in action. His finale involved sending umbrella-toting models down a runway covered in silver confetti rain.

Kate Winslet Honors Mario Testino at a Bash With Josh Hartnett and Sophia Lie

Allie Merriam — Fri, 27 May 2011 10:05:00 PDT

Mario Testino was the guest of honor last night at a gala thrown by the Latin American museum El Museo de Barrio at NYC's Cipriani restaurant. Kate Winslet, who just worked with Mario on a new round of ads for Lancôme, introduced the photographer and presented him with a silver Asprey tray that had been signed by friends like Sienna Miller, Julia Roberts, and Demi Moore. The Narciso Rodriguez-clad actress started with a joke, saying, "The two other Kates, Kate Moss and Kate Middleton, were unavailable so you have to make do with me." Mario, who confessed that his favorite person he ever worked with was Princess Diana, spoke for the first time about lensing Prince William and Kate Middleton's engagement pictures. He said of the shoot, "You know, it's not so much what they say to each other because there is no time. Everything is compacted into a very short time because we have to produce these pictures. It's more like me screaming and trying to get everything to go - well, not screaming, but getting in a fluster, I guess you say . . . They are a young couple in love." Affection was in the air for John Legend and Chrissy Teigen as well as fellow attendee Josh Hartnett, who hung out with his girlfriend, Sophia Lie, when he wasn't catching up with fashion heavyweights like Anna Wintour and Donatella Versace.
