Good Morning

This week we will be looking at photographer Melanie Pullen.

Melanie Pullen

Melanie Pullen's work "High Fashion Crime Scenes" has received much acclaim. The work consists of over
one hundred crime scenes based on NYPD and LAPD crime scenes photographed like a Hollywood set.
She photographs covers for Vogue, Elle and other magazines. Her work is unusual and is not for the squeamish.

Melanie has a collection of over one hundred photograpahs that comprimise High Fashion Crime Scenes and
her work is based on vintage crime-scenes she mined from files of the Los Angeles Police Department, the
Coroner's office and other primary sources. She began re-enacting the scenes outfitting the 'victims' and
staging photographs.
