Treats! Magazine Issue Seven | Page 8

CONTRIBUTORS STEPHAN WÜRTH German-born fashion photographer Stephan Würth has been fascinated with the mythical vistas of the American West and the beautiful isolation of its vast desert expanses. Würth began shooting as a teen capturing the coppery sun-goddesses of the Spanish coast, which led to him enrolling in the Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale to study photography. In TREATS! issue 2, Würth’s excerpt from his book Ghost Town appeared; a tale of three stranded women in the Nevada desert who turn their exiled ghost town into a sexy, playful cowgirl holiday. In this issue of TREATS!, he shot the story “Tereza” (page 159), another dreamy exploration of voyeuristic desert sensuality. Stephan’s work has appeared in Vogue, GQ, Esquire, Galore and Playboy. TONY DURAN Tony Duran is a Los Angeles-based photographer who studied art at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. Duran is an innovator of nude and semi-nude photography combined with the use of mysterious imagery and props, making his work inimitable. This is not Duran’s first time in the pages of TREATS!; he shot his singularly sensual editorials with Emily Ratajkowski for issues 1, 2 & 4. In this issue of TREATS!, he photographed model Dylan Penn for the cover, and the story “The Baptism” (page 107). Tony’s work has appeared in GQ, Elle, Flaunt, Rolling Stone, Esquire and Kurv; he has shot celebrities ranging from Jennifer Lopez and Scarlett Johansson to Brad Pitt, Kevin Spacey and Beyoncé. DENNISON BERTRAM Dennison Bertram is an American fashion photographer and film director based in Milan, Italy. His work captures the stillness of beauty and an almost effortless ability to connect to a moment in time that becomes timeless; all the while bottling a soft beauty with a strong soul. In his first shoot for TREATS!, he shot the story “Paula” (page 53), perfectly encapsulating his classic splendor. Bertrams’s work has appeared in Flaunt, Kinki, Esquire, Vogue, Marie Claire, Elle and Hercules. His advertising clients include Louis Vuitton, Helen Marlen and Dolce & Gabbana. RUSSELL JAMES Australian-born fashion, celebrity, and beauty photographer Russell James is best known for his work with Victoria’s Secret. His work has helped define the brand: clean, classy and sexy. James has also appeared on the hit shows America’s Next Top Model and Australia’s Next Top Model as a guest photographer. In this issue of TREATS!, he shot the story “Keir” (page 65) on the Richard Branson-owned Necker Island in the British Virgin Isles. In addition to shooting the world’s most beautiful women—Gisele, Heidi Klum, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Karolina Kurkova and more—for such publications as Vogue, W, American Photo and Sports Illustrated, James has shot advertising campaigns for brands such as Hermès, Rolex, Evian and R
