Bill is The Man. While watching the documentary about him (Bill Cunningham New York), my heart just melted all over the floor. I would so love to meet this man.

Love Mr. Cunningham! Such a sweet man and street fashion’s historian. I’ve seen the documentary about him – just wonderful.

I also snapped Bill at NYFW. He is, of course, fantastic and as much an icon as the people he’s photographed.

What a charming picture of him. I would love to see you guys work together, do a series of street style shots together, imagine a co-authored book!

Lovely of you to photograph him.

I love the fact that he wears that classic utilitarian jacket over and over again, while he searches for an individual’s self-expression through clothes on the street. It says a lot about him. Long live Bill Cunningham!

What i really like in this photo is the smile that it is so characteristic from him. he looks like an happy child doing him passion like it is was the first time over and over again. i feel the same when doing my work. you did capt it so well in the right moment.

Does he still use film for all his work?? Anyone know – im just curious

Love him. I looked all over Paris for those work jackets of his.

I adore this man more than I can say. Legend.

Loved being introduced to him via the documentary. Darling man!

I love this! You seem to have captured *him* perfectly – wonderful shot.

Love him. Love this shot. Brilliant.

He is an inspiration in all the full sense of the word!

I love this man!

I watched the beautiful 2011 doc (directed by Richard Press) about B.C. on Hulu recently – highly recommended!!!

I heart Bill Cunningham! The original Sartorialist! Such a wonderful attitude and personality. I loved the documentary about him. He’s always lived his life on his terms and is still going strong, good for him!

This man is so quite in his passion for working, so peaceful !

One of the last who really understands and appreciates fashion

Un caballero. Una leyenda.

Perfect shot of him! So sweet and heartwarming. I think we all fell in love with him a little more with that documentary, and now every image of him is just that much sweeter.

A smile seems to work magic on every body the more you smile the more brighter your life becomes.

It is like he was caught by surprise, but it come out real well. Was he a photographer? and if yes that is brilliant making good use of his talent even in his old years.

Pure class. The one and only.

Just love Bill to bits! He is such a gentleman and continues to re-see fashion the way it should be. Love the way he constantly is delighted by what he finds on the street. Every city could do with a Bill!

“The Legend”

a true Gentleman in this fashion sea of impolite fashion world.

I like his pictures!!!

What a legend!!!

The ever young at heart Mr Cunningham. I watched the documentary about his work/passion many times. Bravo !

Bill is such a genuine person. Truly a legend !

I am a BIG fan of Bill Cunningham. I greatly enjoyed the documentary on him. Such a beautiful person. An angel from heaven!

what a lovely man….he took my photo and it appeared on the cover of WWD years ago..i also stop to say hello when i see him

Thank you Scott for featuring BC ! I am a looooong admirer of his work and always waiting impatiently for his work to show up in the Times (print and on line).

Thank you Mr. Cunningham for your wonderful and contagious joy you bring while doing your work.
I love love love love love love love love love love it !

Now *that* is how you hold a camera!

BC thru the eyes of SS !
Thank you both for your wonderful dedication to the fashion world and beyond.

I looooooove BC and would really hope to meet him one day.
Every time I am in the city I would go to the streets where he often photograph so I can take a picture of him and tell him in person how inspiring he is.
I have not met him in person yet but one day, I hope…

Great respect for Mr. Cunningham. I admire him.

Bill is a pioneer in this field of sartorialists. Kudos to the observers and performers for giving us positive news feeds daily.

Great to see Mr Cunningham doing what he is so good at!

I saw Bill on Sunday night shooting the windows at Bergdorfs. Can’t wait to see the photos!

He is just fabulous beyond words!!!

The Godfather

One of my prized possessions is a 1985 NY Times “STYLE” page that Mr. Cunningham photographed. It has a photo of a Kansai Yamamoto outfit that I had designed the graphics for when I was working and living in Tokyo.

I seem to have aged, yet BC seems the same!!

The original…he never makes his art about him…always the art..so rare these days

it’s the second time I see him with a “cheap” nikon dslr…haha really shows its not about the cameras! I do believe is using digital for his “on the street now”. Anyways funny to see he using an older lens that he probably needs to focus manually…you need to be quick…kids, watch and learn!

I know this is a strange question, however, does anyone know what sort of camera and lens old Bill is working with? thanks.

Keep rocking Bill!!!!!!!
You are an inspiration, for the way you live your work.

can we love bill c. any more than we already do…oh yes we can! great shot of a legend – he’s simply a joy to look at.

In the above picture he’s using a Nikon with a guide mode (the green setting on the wheel), so a D3100 or D3200, both good, cheap entry-level DSLR’s.

The lens is a little thing, tempted to say the 35mm, but they scale up on those bodies, so maybe something smaller with only manual focus.
