Bronwyn Kidd

[citation needed] She undertook her upper-secondary education at Ivanhoe Girls' Grammar School 1983-1986, where, using her father's Pentax ME II Super, her interest in photography began.

[citation needed] Eager to begin a career, Kidd left art school early, and she took work as an assistant to local fashion photographers.

[2] At barely 23 years of age she was taken on by the Queen's couturier Sir Hardy Amies to shoot exclusively for his Savile Row seasonal collections and advertising.

Her portraits began to feature prominently in the national press, and subjects include Judge Betty King, Vicki Roach, Philip Lynch, Rob Story, Fiona Smith, Kon Karapanagiotidis, Maxine Morand, Daniel Andrews, Helen Silver, Rod Eddington, Lindsay Tanner, Greg Hunt, Bernie Finn, Carole Francis, and artists Bill Henson, Sam Leach and Gareth Samson.

[10] In 2016 she co-created, with long-time collaborator the creative director Virginia Dowzer, the image used to promote the National Gallery of Victoria’s 200 Years of Australian Fashion exhibition.
