Jo Hammar, godfather of fetish photography
Before embarking on his career as a professional photographer, Hammar cultivated a passion for fetish photography, with a specific focus on "rubber fetish photography," as a hobbyist. Even while serving in the Air Force, he explored this niche, producing images that captured the imagination of the emerging global fetish scene.
Throughout the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, JH played a pivotal role in shaping the fetish scene in cities like London, Hamburg, Amsterdam, and New York. His interactions with influential figures such as John Sutcliffe, Allen Jones, Vivienne Westwood, and Steve English were instrumental in advancing what is now a vast global community of rubber fetish enthusiasts.
As JH started his professional career, rubber fetish photography became increasingly prominent in his work, expanding beyond magazine covers and sets into fashion, advertising, and even music. Hammar traveled to diverse locations worldwide, from volcanic islands to rainforests, capturing fetish images with stunning models.
As interest in rubber clothing and lingerie surged, particularly in Germany, Great Britain, and the USA, JH became highly sought-after for catalogs and promotions. Media reviews of JH's work consistently praise his artistic vision and the profound impact of his collaborations, especially with model Natalia, further cementing his legacy in the fetish photography genre.
