All tag results for 'david ross'

Kate Moss has basically been modeling since she was a fetus, so it's no surprise that old modeling pics keep turning up every few years.

The latest crop are from photographer David Ross who had kept the negatives of a photoshoot he had with the supermodel when she was just 14 in a drawer for years.

The photog finally got around to developing the pics recently, and now they are going to be auctioned off by Bloomsbury at a starting price of £1,200 each (approx. $1,860).

Start saving now, Kate Moss fans!

Ross also describes what it was like working with the first-timer. He said:

"She wasn't forward or confident at all. I took three rolls of films. The first roll was just to see how Kate responded to the camera and she was a natural. I didn't think there was any commercial potential in them because she looked so raw in them. The other pictures looked far more commercial and they helped launch her career. I enjoyed photographing her because she had quite angular bones. She looked so young. But these pictures portray her at the absolute threshold of her life changing forever."

Lesson to all photographers out there: Don't ever throw away your negatives!

Can’t get enough of Kate Moss?

Now you can own a key moment in her career! David Ross snapped three pics as Moss’ first sitting when she was 14-years-old, and now he’s auctioning them off.

Ross said of the shoot with the tween:

"Kate was a cool character. She seemed like a tough or resilient typical teenager, comfortably fronting me up, perhaps covering up her nerves… I suppose what was refreshing was that she was honest. She wasn't trying to prove anything or act above her station. She didn't try to adopt a model attitude of self-absorption and superiority, which at the time was becoming public via media sensation. She was untarnished. A blank canvas, as other writers have put it."

We have to agree!

The bidding will be held at Bloomsbury Auctions on November 23, and the pictures are expected to get $1,269 to $1,904 each!

Congrats to whoever gets these pieces of fashion history!
