The “Lost Archive” of Norman Seeff.

Over the past 45 years, photographer and filmmaker Norman Seeff has captured some of the world’s most recognizable faces—Ray Charles, Patti Smith, Carly Simon, Steve Martin, Diane Keaton, Dennis Hopper, Andy Warhol, and more—in their most unguarded moments. Though his images have graced some of the most iconic covers of albums and magazines, the authentic connections and conversations sparked by the photo sessions are as artful and important to Seeff as the images themselves. The end result? A vast collection of images from more than 500 photo sessions, some of which he recently rediscovered for “Photographs by Norman Seeff: The Lost Archive”—a selection of 50 photographs that will be auctioned online by Christie’s from September 27 to October 9. Below, Seeff recalls the priceless moments from his most memorable sessions. Plus: Carly Simon on what loosened her up while working with the lensman.

I took this snap and realised this season’s spring fashion must have been inspired by Andy’s 1972 colour palette and so am I! Let’s dream Paris and a peachy rosé, confetti cherry blossoms and key lime pie.

Andy Warhol’s film “Poor Little Rich Girl” starred Edie Sedgwick

Our latest architecture studio assignment asks us to make a short film concerning an interpretation of landscape. I am finding a lot of inspiration in some of Andy Warhol’s films. Poor Little Rich Girl, starring Edie Sedgwick, demonstrates how an individual can occupy a film in a totally unique way. Although the film starts out of focus and is grainy, it is well worth a look too discover the creative genius of Warhol and Sedgwick combined.
