Sir Cecil Walter Hardy Beaton (January 14, 1904January 18, 1980) was an English fashion and portrait photographer and a stage and costume designer for films and the theatre.

Photography


Educated at Harrow and St. John's College, Cambridge, Beaton picked up photography on his own. He taught himself the tricks of the trade as a young boy, taking the usual pictures of friends and family. At the end of his college career in 1925, he had set up his own successful photography studio. One of his earliest clients and, later, best friends was Stephen Tennant; Beaton's photographs of Tennant and his circle are considered some of the best representations of the "Bright Young Things" of the twenties and thirties.
