A Philip Pelusi “Did You Know?” ~ Philip The Photographer
It all started organically, Philip simply wanted to take photos of his and his Designer’s work. The outcome was a burgeoning photographer, himself! Shooting an amazing 50,000 photographic images starting in 1965 usually from 2 cameras, one color and the other black/white film. Sometimes shooting 1,000 images in one day!
He saw photography as a way to not only immortalize the work he and his team created, but also an avenue for more creative expression for his team. Hair, makeup, photo styling, the works! Teams working side by side creating their vision.
These photos also served as an original source for TV, billboard, and print ads as well as artistic décor for the salons and The Philip Pelusi Center for Talent Development. Most images were photographed in the Talent Center but also in NYC, Italy, Japan and beyond!
Today, this photo passion is still going strong with the new Philip Pelusi Beauty School Collaborative Photoshoot Events! And will live long into the future with his Designer’s snapping their own pics and sharing them to an even wider audience through social media. Can we say Philip started the original Instagram?!?!
