Collected in the coffee table tome are photographs spanning her career to date, ranging from personal shots to intimate portraiture and editorial work. Edited by Kelly,  to book features haunting still life images, profound landscapes, glamorous candid snapshots, and sophisticated fashion features.  Klein’s unique eye is present throughout—an icon of style lending a touch of her own vision to everything she photographs. *All images in this feature courtesy of  “Photographs by Kelly Klein by Kelly Klein, Rizzoli New York, 2015.
