Biography
Originally born in Germany, Dorit Thies relocated to Los Angeles in the late 1980s. She first started shooting with High ISO film because of its ability to give her total freedom, and she enjoyed not having to deal with the nuances of lighting equipment but instead used only available light. Her first series consisted of nude images of her female friends, and her early inspiration came from the likes of surrealist painters Remedios Varo and photographers such as Tina Modotti and Manuel Alvarez Bravo.
She is recognized for her strikingly detailed and conceptual compositions. With a glamour and intrigue that only comes from her unique, visual perspective, she is best known for her work in the beauty, hair, fashion and lifestyle industry. For over 20 years, Dorit's bold and transcendent style has found international acclaim throughout Europe, Asia, and the U.S. with features for many major publications and companies.
