Style-

He normal uses black and white effects on his work, photographed a variety of subjects but was best known for his portraits of artists and writers. His style ranged from the formal,such as posed shots of artists with their work in the studio, to close-ups revealing their various reactions to being photographed. Hedgecoe took portraits of Henry Moore, Francis Bacon, David Hockney, John Betjeman, Ted Hughes and Agatha Christie, but his most famous sitter was the Queen. Hedgecoe's image of her has effectively sold more than 200bn copies, as it is used on postage stamps. It is credited with being the most frequently reproduced image in the world.
