ANNNNND right about now is a good time to give a shout out to Roberts site Http://www.robertwhitakerphotography.com you can also find Roberts work on Facebook under Robert Whittaker Photography. Roberts son is a friend and viewer of this Blog, and i’m always proud of the Aussie connection between Australia, Robert and the Fabs


Two new ones from this Robert Whitaker session. Nice!
Don’t thank me, i just tarted them up, thank Lizzie
Thanks, Lizzie!
bring in the sheepdog!
Lovely shots Lizzie, I have downloaded quite a few of the polystyrene photo shoot pictures. Robert loved to give the boys costumes or “props” to inject some fun into the the sessions and having met the sadly departed RW I must say that he was always the best Beatles photographer in my view.
@Steve Phillips…
(I’m diggin’ that)
Dezo Hoffman = flat ground
Robert Freeman = stepping off a curb
Robert Whitaker = stepping off a cliff
Ooooops!
(Thank you, Lizzie)
A lot of the shots from this same 1965 session where the Fabs are dressed up, holding LP covers, etc, etc were taken by another photographer called Bill Francis for Fabulous magazine. A lot of his stuff gets misidentified as being taken by Robert Whitaker.
you’re all very welcome. if i won the lottery, i wouldn’t have to work and could spend my time going through my beatle collection and scanning stuff! wouldn’t that be fun?
Thanks a bunch for posting these, both of them are new to me and they’re great. : )
thank you for showing me this site: amazing photographer! as a teenager, you just enjoy the photos and have no idea who was behind them, but now i really appreciate this kind of information.
