Portraits by Hugh Stewart

He has photographed many Hollywood celebrities and his works, including editorials for the most prestigious fashion magazines in the world, have been exhibited in the National Portrait Gallery in London and Canberra. I’ll let these portraits taken by Hugh Stewart do the talking and I’ll let you be fascinated by them as I am every time I see them. In turn, I’ve inserted a few quotes, words from some fine actors (one of them a director as well): we can learn from their experience, passion and commitment to their work. I simply had to open the post with Paul Newman.

    Wow Ada! This is one of my favorite posts from you! I love reading quotes and Paul Newman (one of the nicest and best-looking guys ever!) and Michael Cain (So funny!) are my favorites! The celebrity portraits are something I can never get tired of! I find it endlessly fascinating!

    Thank you so much for your sweet comment about my work situation…I’m feeling a bit nervous and dreaded to go to work because my boss is becoming extremely mood and started screaming at me if anything goes wrong and I feel like she just wants to find fault in everything I do. So I don’t think it’s worth it to stay there anymore. xoxoxoxo

    Beautiful photos, sweetheart! I love how natural everyone looks and how these pictures really reflect emotions. Kate’s picture is my favourite – it just feels so… warm and delicate.
    Hope your week is going well.

    Stunning photos! It seems like the photographer really captured each person’s unique personality. And you can’t go wrong with Paul Newman …

    Great portraits, you were right about him.
    I love the quotes, especially the one of Clint Eastwood. His picture is also the best in my opinion, the green truck suits his personality.

    The portraits are indeed great. The one with Michael Caine has a lot of force. In the fourth picture, is that Nicole Kidman?

    love the one of Clint Eastwood the best. But he has so much character in his face, like Newman. great choices for quotes too.
