Meet Todd Selby. A tremendously talented creative whose voyeuristic concept of photography exposes his keen intuition for details, and has even been hailed as the 'Larry Flint of apartment porn'. His premise holds beauty in its simplicity, and is refreshingly free from any traces of arty spiel. Essentially, he is an interiors and fashion photographer. Be fooled not though, as Todd does not mess about with big budget glossy spreads. For him, a shoot involves being 'on location' inside someone's own personal space, and being granted free reign with their most intimate and prized possessions (in terms of photography, of course).
Whilst the concept is unorthodox, his subjects are far from just your ordinary joe. Todd's impressive client list is now a treasure trove containing the who's who of the creative community and their veritably hip abodes - a far cry from starting out photographing his friends' homes. Unfazed, the social status of his subjects matters not. Taking a candid approach to these people's lives, he documents their self made living spaces, and holds a penchant for exposing their quirks - and perhaps hidden interests - ending up with a concept that breathes new life to the term 'Peeping Tom'.
