2. What is fashion photography?
 Fashion photography is a genre of photography, which is devoted to displaying
clothing and other fashion items. Fashion photography is most often
conducted for advertisements or fashion magazines such as Vogue, Vanity Fair,
or Elle. Fashion photography has developed its own aesthetic in which the
clothes and fashions are enhanced by the presence of exotic locations or
accessories
 Fashion photography made its first appearance in French and American
magazines such as La mode pratique and Harper's Bazaar.
 Fashion photography takes the form of magazines, books, ad campaigns,
billboards and online. At its start in 1839, it existed strictly to sell. Today, it
reflects a lifestyle, an attitude, and a story compromised of the subject(s),
location, styling, make-up, hair, and photographer’s vision.
