Biography
As Magdalene Keaney states in a biography on John Akehurst, he was "propelled into a career as a photographer through his love of design and fashion, fostered at college. He worked in New York City as a freelance assistant for Albert Watson, among others, before returning to London where he began his career shooting front pages for magazines. His first major editorial break came with his now-iconic story, "The Egg" published in The Face in 1997. The still-startling abstraction in this story has remained central to his approach to photographing the body, with its emphasis on form and shape. His influences are stated as stemming from photographers such as Bill Brandt, Edward Weston, and Irving Penn".
