Has Nick Knight Dug His Own Grave?


There are many highly accredited photographers that many people are completely fascinated by. With social media and internet use at an all-time high there are countless platforms for photographers to share their work. An example is Nick Knight, British fashion photographer now founder of ShowStudio.com a website that expresses fashion news and articles through visual media. He is keeping up with trends more than most as he recently shot an entire Diesel campaign with just his iPhone and a few image manipulation apps. His prestigious career so far has included Vogue covers, inclusion in the Olympic closing ceremony 2012 and has been awarded an OBE. But a reasonably large question mark was planted over his name after the release of the recent Bound 2 video with Kanye West. With such a highly accredited photographer as the director of this music video people can only assume that a naked Kim Kardashian sat on a still motorbike in front a green screen has to be a joke. Knight has worked with Kanye West on a number of occasions but none of the past projects have caused quite as much controversy. If it was a media uproar they wanted then Knight has done his job.
