Gordon Ayres has been photographing the British and Continental
1930s, 40s, 50s retro scene for over 20 years, following the people
who have created a unique look and sound - from the bands and
dancers, to the fans who populate this stylish, secretive underworld
movement.
Using techniques culled from the classic Hollywood period, Ayres
finds inspiration in both the studio glamour photographers of the
time, and the grainy reportage style of the dime newspaper
reporters.
Film Noir is an inspiration for scene set shots, and similar
lighting suits the exotic allure of Burlesque ,and smoky night-club
musician photographs.
By contrast the elegance of Vogue-magazine-style portraits of ladies
with hats and gloves at a Paris cafe, or snaps of people in evening
clothes at a Swiss hotel in the thirties-give an impression of a
bygone era.
Use of quality vintage lens and studio lamps create the exact feel
of the look of the 20s to the 50s- for whatever the occasion.
