Who is Bee Shaffer's husband? t’s been a year since the fashion world saw the wedding of two children of the Vogue empire. Bee Shaffer and Francesco Carrozini tied the knot last summer and brought together the legacy of Vogue and Vogue Italia. Shaffer is the daughter of Vogue editor Anna Winter and her husband Francesco Carrozzini is the son of the late editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia, Franca Sozzani.
Shaffer isn’t a fashion pro. Instead, she is a producer for Late Night with Seth Meyers — though she does have an enviable sense of style, probably thanks to her mom.
As for Carrozzni, he’s a photographer and director. He’s known for the full-length documentary he made about his mother called Franca: Chaos & Creation. But the bulk of his work has been in portrait photography as well as directing commercials and music videos. You may not know his name but you’ve certainly seen the people he works with. Read on to learn more.
1. Iconic Faces
When Morgan Freeman was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Screen Actors Guild, Carrozzini posted this image from a 2014 shoot they did together.
2. Hip-hop Royalty
Carrozzini directed MaNyFaCedGod for Jay-Z, staring the flawless Lupita Nyongo.
3. Cutting Edge
He partnered with Apple on the UP NEXT series.
4. Did we say iconic?
It’s hard to think of a musician more epic than Keith Richards.
5. Dark side
Carrozzini shot Mephistopheles of Los Angeles for Marilyn Manson.
6. Fragrance
Admit it. This ad Carrozzini directed makes you want this cologne.
7. Travel
His unpublished photos that he shares on Instagram are also sensational, like this one from India.
8. Wit
Sometimes a fashion photographer has to be in on the jokes about the fashion industry, like shooting Ben Stiller as his fashion alter-ego Zoolander.
9. Art collector
I know this sounds weird but “Artist’s Shit” by Piero Manzoni is an unbelievably iconic and subversive work of art. There are only 90 of these in the world and Carrozzini has one of them.
10. Seriously, so iconic
Carrozzini posted this selfie with Yoko Ono in 2015.
