About the French photographer, Jeanloup SIEFF

Jeanloup (Jean Louis) SIEFF was a French fashion photographer. For his first fashion photo in 1952, his girlfriend posed for him and he had drawn the picture that is shown in the photograph himself. When he then received an assignment from the French fashion magazine 'Elle' in the mid-1950s, that was his big breakthrough. For three years he worked there as a freelance photojournalist and fashion photographer. In 1958 he became a member of the Magnum photography agency, but left again in 1959. In 1961, he moved to New York and worked for all the major fashion magazines of the time: 'Look', 'Esquire' and 'Harper's Bazaar'; back in Paris, 'Vogue' and 'Nova' followed.
