Greg Gorman and l.a.Eyeworks make wearing glasses high art. From the elegant to the outrageous, from tastemakers to troublemakers, every subject is seen through and behind a unique frame.
From the fabulously celebrated to the simply fabulous, the l.a.Eyeworks “A face is like a work of art…” ad campaign defined the zeitgeist from the So '80s to the So Now!
Many people know me for wearing shades but the final certification came when Greg shot me for an l.a.Eyeworks ad. I knew Greg by reputation and the idea of shooting with him was exciting, flattering and scary—what more could an aspiring rock star ask for? I love the photo he took of me for l.a.Eyeworks. It is truly glamorous. Greg and his famous shots were and are legend.
What is there to say—I adore Greg! We bonded over l.a.Eyeworks and French bulldogs, and my life was forever changed. He is a transcendent photographer, a VERY naughty man and one of my dearest friends.
Unique frames on unique individuals "framed" by a unique photographer—that was as good a campaign as it gets. And I got a bunch of terrific glasses from l.a.Eyeworks!
The only thing better than Greg's photos are my girls.
I have known Greg Gorman for my entire professional life. I treasure his friendship and his unparalleled vision as an artist.
When I first saw Greg’s photographs, I decided he had to photograph me. His detail for lighting, whether in black & white or colour, is striking. His "nudes" are amazing—natural light cascading at a precise time of day, which means I had to be on time not to lose the light (there’s a first time for everything). He always clears his schedule so we can shoot all night long. We have shot many lives together and I will keep returning...
Greg Gorman is the nicest ex-Marine Hollywood glamour photographer I know. So yes, I let him take my picture with my glasses on.
Greg Gorman and l.a.Eyeworks frame our gaze, seeing outwards and inwards the magnificence of seeing and being seen through the lens of exquisite contemporary design where we all become a celebrity behind our shades.
