Forthcoming Work: reFRESH Magazine

Keep an eye out for my forthcoming men's fashion editorial that I did for reFRESH Magazine. The theme for the shoot was summer fashion and I ended up taking my team down to Brighton to shoot in and around Brighton beach.

Alex Beer Biography


Alex Beer Biography.Alex Beer, born December 7th, 1979 in Cambridge Great Britain, was always a high achiever in his youth, applying the same enthusiasm to anything he put his mind to. It was only when he entered a modelling competition, judged by Vivienne Westwood that a whole new world opened up for him. Alex, as a result was signed to a top british modelling agency where he worked all over the world on various campaigns and high end fashion editorials but he was soon to learn his true passion lay behind the camera" I was always intrigued by the photographers vision, why they inevitably decided on the story at hand, telling it through various compositions, lighting and subject expression. To me it was a small window to a world that only existed for that moment in time and the images were a reminder of that world and I wanted to learn more."Alex decided that he wanted to focus more on the creative process behind the image and began to self teach the art of photography and bought himself his first ever professional camera. Each subject was tackled with a directional approach, where each detail was carefully thought out in order to tell the story how he envisaged it."I strive to bring the imagery in my mind to life and although I want to attain the "perfect image" i see imperfection as perfection as they are often less contrived."One of Alex's main passions is the art of Tattooing duelled with photography shot in portrait form."I like the spontaneity which this cinematic style of shooting offers as you never know what personality someone can bring on the day and by not deliberating too much i feel the best images can be formed" His approach is to depict the way in which each person wears their art on their bodies, capturing each subjects individuality."I find it a privilege and an honour to be invited into that persons life for that moment in time and in return i aim to give them something to treasure through my art" His first ever commissioned piece was for Sang Bleu, a high end editorial/portrait coffee table style publication which is tattoo illustrated.Although Alex treats every project with sincere professionalism he primarily loves what he does " It is important for me to maintain the same energy, enthusiasm and momentum on a shoot as these have always proved to be the best ingredients towards creating the final result" The ability to "shoot outside the box" keeps his style unique and special,making that short-lived love affair worthwhile.Publications so far include: Sang Bleu and Refresh Magazine
