Starman Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 They're not at all. They're fashion photographers. Ritz was a portrait photographer essentially. They're more in line with Meisel. I agree Ritts could really capture her personality also i feel that most of M&M photos are like "lets shoot this person in a way that she/he can look nothing like her/himself" not only Madonna but all their celebrities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessie Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I wanna see Madonna with this amazing look once again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacket Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Fantastic photos from that year. So stylish and chic. M's face was divine. Photoshoots now a days seem so heavily reliant on overt sexiness. These ones are just effortlessly sexy cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessie Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I remember the media calling her the "mechanical girl" regarding her acting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LikeAPrayer Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I go back and forth with this era, it never really seemed like she was having much fun back then to me. The early 00's were a bit of a strange time to be a Madonna fan with the tracksuits, the devout Kaballahism, the children's books, the English countryside semi-living, the hanging out in pubs, etc. It's just amazing to see how much she's seemed to change since then.

ryan Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I love that on some occasions she wore that outfit underneath her coat: Good eye Nessie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johndvd25 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Not a fan of the VF cover.... Die another day was a radio hit in my country! The video is fierce! One of my faves. For me its one of her last great videos together with american life, until GGW vid came along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 i still can't believe these weren't used I know, right?! Crazy! Especially this one. It's one of my faves ever. And the one below ... it was used in the ICON "book" Nobody Knows Me, but ... still relatively obscure. Can't understand why it wouldn't have been published properly anywhere. There's another outtake of her face with netting ... b&w ... from this McDean shoot. I'll see if I can dig it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad_On_Her Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 this was the start of the period when Madonna became so fucking boring. the clothes, hair attitude everything. the only saving grace was the American Life album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
