He portrays an expensive, elegant look used to help market brands like Salvatore Ferragamo, Burberry, Dolce and Gabbana, Versace and Vogue.

He is known for making the subjects of his images look their best and does this with his natural charm, which he brings with him everywhere he goes. This attribute also brings color to his work, visually and metaphorically, as displayed early on in his career.
Mario Testino’s images are what to look for when you want to envision a lifestyle of wealth and luxury. He always has strong, bold images that are vivid in life and energy. Making photography fun for him is expressed in his body of work where he can show a cool party in black and white or a laid back seen by a pool in full color.
