Ellen von Unwerth worked as a fashion model for ten years before moving behind the camera. Quoted as saying "(Women) are not just there to be admired, they are there to be enjoyed," her erotically charged images of models, film and music stars are as well know as the subjects of the photographs themselves.

A supermodel before the phrase was truly coined, Ellen von Unwerth is responsible for several books of photography, as well as directing fashion short films and music videos.Top journals such as Vogue, Vanity Fair, Arena, L'Uomo Vogue and I-D have been addicted to her inimitable fashion photography since she first picked up a camera.
