He began his career as a fashion illustrator for Italian Vogue and found that his drawings became more “photo-like.” He was named Illustrator of the Year in 1991 by Art Direction magazine but still fantasized about taking pictures, feeling his drawings were surpassed by photographic images. Ligresti took the leap and began assisting photographers Francis Ing and Marco Glaviano. He became a full-time photographer in 1997. HIS FAVORITE MODERN PHOTO SESSION: This was a difficult question for the diplomatic Ligresti. He finally answered, “My true favorite was the two-day shoot where we took one model and five hairdressers, each prepping her for an imaginary party. It was amazing to see each completely different interpretation.” (The shoot appeared in the March 2007 issue of MODERN.) 24 JANUARY 2009 www.modernsalon.com http://www.fantasiahaircare.com http://www.fantasiahaircare.com http://www.modernsalon.com
