PATRICK DEMARCHELIER, A WELL-KNOWN FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER, HAS DIED AT THE AGE OF 78

  • 01/04/2022

Patrick Demarchelier, who shot Princess Diana, Beyonce, Madonna, and Jennifer Lopez, died at the age of 78.

He also worked on commercial campaigns for Dior, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Tommy Hilfiger, and Carolina Herrera, which the princess described as a "dream."

Diana was photographed by the French photographer and published on the cover of Vogue's December 1991 edition. 

The photographer - who was namechecked in 2006 film The Devil Wears Prada by Meryl Streep's infamous magazine editor character - also worked for high-profile titles including Harper's Bazaar, Elle and Rolling Stone. 

He is survived by his wife Mia, his three sons Gustaf, Arthur, Victor and three grandchildren, his representatives said.

In 2018, he was accused of sexual harassment, which he denied. In an investigation that year by the Boston Globe, six models and a former assistant accused Demarchelier of unwanted sexual advances. In response, he said he had "never, never, never" touched a model inappropriately, saying the accusations were "pure lying" by models who "get frustrated if they don't work".
