Jeanloup Sieff
French · b. 1933

Sieff worked extensively in gelatin silver print photography capturing intimate and candid portraits of figures in domestic and natural settings with a similarly elegant monochrome aesthetic and quietly observational sensibility.

Guy Bourdin
French · b. 1928

Bourdin shared Newton's European eye for the female figure in naturalistic outdoor and private settings, producing gelatin silver and later color prints that balance candid spontaneity with carefully composed portraiture.

Herb Ritts
American · b. 1952

Ritts produced monochrome gelatin silver portraits that emphasize naturalism and the human figure in intimate surroundings, sharing Newton's clean tonal contrasts and direct yet personal approach to photographing subjects in relaxed, uncontrived moments.
