"Style blogging pioneer Scott Schuman talks about his skyrocketing career and his new book
Named one of Time magazine's top 100 design influencers in 2007. The fashion-marketing-guy-turned-shutterbug is a style blogging pioneer, influencing and defining fashion around the world through the hundreds of photos displayed on his site, which boasts more than 100,000 hits a day.
People describe you as a fashion legend.
Yeah. I'm gonna keep doing it. I love it and I'm going to wear that responsibility. I work my ass off. I was up last night and I shot all day for these commercial projects. The money I make from Burberry, Adidas and Style.com will make it possible for me to go to fashion weeks in Milan, Paris, London, New York, Stockholm, Australia – but also to places like Peru, Laos, Tibet. I want to mix in national indigenous style. I want to be able to look back at my pictures and say this was a snapshot, not a report, of my vision when I visited.
Who are your photographic influences?
[Photojournalist] Steve McCurry is as much an influence to me as [fashion photographer] Bruce Weber.
What camera do you use?
I use a Canon EOS 5D Mark II. It shoots high-definition video even though I haven't figured out how to do that. But I'm still really good in bed."
