โ€œOnce upon a time, life was not better. It was different. Once upon a time, everything was optimism, because nothing was bad for you.โ€ โ€“ Slim Aarons, Poolside

The introductory words to โ€˜Poolside with Slim Aaronsโ€˜ written by William Norwich, do an exemplary job of capturing the essence of George Allen Aaronsโ€™ photography. Sitting with the book, flicking through the pages, you are drawn into a period of โ€˜jet set utopianismโ€™ enjoyed by the fabulously wealthy and captured by โ€œthe photo laureate of the upper classesโ€, as the New York Times once phrased it.

Itโ€™s not the wealth that interests me specifically, itโ€™s the carefree attitude that comes with it, and how Slim Aarons has managed to translate it โ€“ positively. Thereโ€™s no denying his most iconic photos are of attractive people, doing attractive things, in attractive places โ€“ but I think for fans of his work today, thereโ€™s such a fascination with this period of distinct class, carefree love and expenditure that drives so much interest.

Hereโ€™s a handful of the best Slim Aarons poolside shots. To buy Poolsideclick here. While youโ€™re at it, also check out Lenny Kravitzโ€™s Beverly Hills mansion which took inspiration from the book and the photographerโ€™s portfolio of photos.
