Guy Bourdin

I find this really cool, everything is sharp and acurate, which also
makes it look modern.  

Guy Louis Banarès was born December 2, 1928, at 7 Rue Popincourt, Paris. He was abandoned by his mother the following year, and was adopted by Maurice Désiré Bourdin, who brought him up with the help of his mother Marguerite Legay.
During his military service in Dakar (1948–1949), he received his first photography training as a cadet in the French Air Force.

I know this isn't like levertation, because firstly they're using
retraints, whereas levertations has you in the air, looking like your
floating.
