Winter 2016/2017
Tribute to Franca Sozzani
20 January 1950 – 22 December 2016
Franca Sozzani was a rock star of an Editor, a giant visionary. She was the longest serving editor in the history of Conde Nast.
I was privileged to have met her in the 90’s having been to see the Italian fashion photographer Paolo Roversi to persuade him to take me on as his assistant. Having shown Paolo my portfolio he promptly took my hand and led me straight to Franca who he was shooting for that day in North Audley Street. He introduced us by saying “Sarah wants to be my assistant; I think she should be shooting for you”. Franca was kind and funny; we laughed and talked about music and Marrakesh. Franca had a sharp eye for detail and missed nothing. She appeared legendary and looked slightly mythical, aquatic with flowing hair and eyes that danced. Closing my portfolio she smiled, looked up and promised to book me. Two weeks later I started shooting fashion portraits for the Italian magazine LEI.
Thank you Franca, for believing in my talent as a photographer and giving me a break.

Onwards & Upwards 2017
Onwards & Upwards is a good sentiment for 2017 given last year’s culling of so many talented and iconic people.
