Publisher's Synopsis
Mike Dowson's photography is simply a case of capturing the moment - he distances himself from any kind of staging and stylisation. This lack of style has become a style in itself - the style of laissez faire.' His photographs of pretty girls appear fresh, unconsumed, spontaneous, tasteful and very erotic. Dowson's models must always convey the feeling of availability, the petty bourgeois may call them tarts. However, these girls are no such thing, they are just young, being themselves and showing their lust for life.'
