Published in June 2009, ‘Lifeguard on Duty’ is the result of years of travel across America, with photographer Matt Albiani capturing lifeguards in their own territory. A former lifeguard himself, Matt draws an emotive portrait of these young guys with a style that I find as a cross between Bruce Weber and Hedi Slimane. The combination of Matt’s emotional connection to the subject, and his skillful photography (having shot for Ralph Lauren, Nautica,Tommy Hilfiger, Victoria's Secret, French Connection, Vanity Fair, Allure, Interview, Elle,…) results in a must have photography book.
