Intimate Portraits of Scarlett Johansson, Charlize Theron, and More Inside “The Light Between Us”

Iconic fashion and celebrity photographer Vincent Peters has released a volume of intimate portraits featuring some of Hollywood’s most well-known names. Peters’ work has been a fixture at magazines such as Vogue and GQ, as well as fashion brands like Saint Laurent, Dior and Gucci, since 1995 when the German-born photographer began his career.
We can tell right off the bat that this book is extremely different from Martin Schoeller’s recently-released portrait book. Employing the art of portrait photography, Peters captures his subjects in cinematic black-and-white, often simultaneously coaxing hidden elements of their personality front and center. From Cameron Diaz to Scarlett Johansson and Emma Watson, Peters turns his camera on the industry’s most beautiful starlets. The results are pages and pages that have us in awe. For those who appreciate a little art, there’s plenty of that too. Get the book for $250, or with a limited-edition print of Cindy Crawford or Charlize Theron for $2,500.
