New fan pic of Robert Pattinson during his photoshoot for Dior ad in LA


From Women’s Wear Daily
Recognizable for his purist style, Lindbergh seems to be prospering during the current backlash against excessive airbrushing and Photoshopping. “For me, every picture is a portrait — no matter what I’m doing. From my very old standpoint, I think everything you do should have a meaning,” he says. “The idea [that] it doesn’t is unacceptable to me. A lot of mainstream photographers seem not to think about what they’re doing or feel any responsibility toward anything. By the time they’re done, the models don’t have any trace of themselves left. This thing about looking young with no wrinkles or expression is all so boring really.”
In the next month or so, his one-minute Lancôme films featuring Cate Blanchett, Lupita Nyong’o, Penelope Cruz and Lily Collins will be released, as well as L’Oréal ones featuring Julianne Moore, Inès de la Fressange and others. Having just shot Robert Pattinson for the new Dior Homme Parfum campaign, Charlize Theron for J’adore Dior and Michelle Williams for Louis Vuitton, Lindbergh said he doesn’t fit the designer mold, “I look more like a plumber, when you see me. Fashion is not my thing.”

Dior Homme is writing a new page in its story with the creation of Dior Homme Parfum and, cast in the fragrance’s image, it’s Robert Pattinson who is the embodiment of this magnetic and intoxicating man.
Smooth and intense, powerful and distinguished, the accords in Dior Homme Parfum reveal a singular and distinguished signature. It’s an intoxicating alchemy of leather notes, floral accents of Pallida iris – the noblest variety in the iris family – and ambrette absolute, the liqorous and heady musky touch that serves to punctuates the base of this new masculine scent. “Dior Homme Parfum is a composition of unusualconcentrationfor a men’s fragrance. It ‘works’ on the skin, having a longevity of an uncommon intensity. It’s a perfume that’s there for the long haul, a voyage”, explains François Demachy, the House’s exclusive perfumer-creator.
A reflection of the new composition contained within a glass bottle with couture finishes, Robert Pattinson embodies this freedom-loving, magnetic, radiant and elegant man. In front of director Romain Gavras’ camera, the actor exhibits his carnal power and nonchalant seductiveness. Everything about him appears elusive, apart from his floral, woody and leathery scent.

Your work is primarily concerned with honesty, so how does that work when you photograph fashion or celebrities?
That’s not so much about honesty. It’s more about finding my own aesthetic in the situation — trying to stay true to my own aesthetic instead of doing what they want. A lot of fashion replicated my work but it was all cleaned up. I can have fun, I can enjoy it. It’s not my goal to become close to Robert Pattinson, who I did a big Dior campaign with. I’d never heard of him before! One of my great things is I don’t know who anybody is. If the designer interests me and the location interests me then it’s easier. I photograph places a lot now — architecture, the sky, water. I’m more interested in all of that right now. Sometimes I meet people who touch me. My friends have gotten old and they’re not always as happy to be photographed. But I still photograph some of the same people [whom she commonly refers to as her tribe] that I did at the beginning.
