BIO >>
Thomas Schenk earned his BFA at the Philadelphia College of Art where he studied ceramics and print-making. Before discovering photography at the age of 26, he worked odd jobs and competed with his show horses. A regular contributor to Dutch Magazine, Schenk's work also appears in Vogue, New York Times Magazine, Surface and Interview He now lives in New York City.
Thomas Schenk's clean lines and stark presentation may suggest a Germanic or Netherlandish aesthetic, yet Thomas is an American, born in Illinois and raised in New Jersey. His fashion photographs are characterized by their utter modernity and edgy introspection. A Thomas Schenk photograph may be comprised of stark and minimal components, but the centerpiece of each photo is always the character and personality present in the face of the model: He takes an already interesting face and makes it fascinating. Thomas originally came to prominence through his memorable photographs of model Angela Lindwall for Harper's Bazaar. He has worked at the highest levels of fashion photography ever since.
Thomas' photographs of Tori Amos are prominently featured in her Strange Little Girls CD artwork and tourbook in collaboration with Kevyn Aucoin's makeup artistry.
