Iconic photo by Slim Aarons of the beautiful and inimitable Helen Dzo Dzo Kaptur, whose life radiated style and grace, here in Palm Springs CA. Slim Aarons (American, October 29, 1916–May 29, 2006) was a photographer well-known for his portraits of the rich and famous. Born George Allen Aarons, he spent his youth in New Hampshire and New York before joining the army during World War II, where his photography career began. Working throughout his career with magazines like Life, Holiday, and Town & Country gave Aarons the chance to document the jet-set lifestyle of Hollywood stars, American and European socialites, and other celebrated figures. His approach was simple; using no make-up artists or artificial lights, he let the natural opulence of his subjects and their surroundings illuminate his lens. Typical scenes from Aaron’s photography take place in the sun, and in front of a pool surrounded by bathing beauties. __________________________ #HelenDzoDzoKaptur #helendzodzo #helenkaptur #slimaarons #photograph #art #rich #famous #lifestyle #lifemagazine #townandcountry #townandcountrymagazine #hollywoodstars #hollywoodroyalty #midcenturymodern #realestate #property #LeaskouPartners #benjaminleaskou #leaskoupartners #Windermere #robgrace #robgraceca @benjaminleaskou @robgraceca #whoswhoofpalmsprings #MillionDollarListing #luxury #luxuryrealestate #luxuryhomes (at Palm Springs, California)
