\n\tAbbey Road<\/a> Studios will award British photographer David Bailey the Lifetime Achievement Award at their annual Music Photography Awards this week. The special one-off award recognizes Bailey\u2019s contribution to music photography over the past six decades. <\/p>\n

\n\tBailey is known for capturing artists like Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, the Beatles<\/a>, the Rolling Stones<\/a>, Bob Marley, David Bowie, and Patti Smith throughout his career. \u201cEveryone is going to take one great picture in their life and hopefully I\u2019ll do two so I\u2019ll have the edge,\u201d Bailey said in a statement. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBailey\u2019s photography broke boundaries with a dynamic, visceral and spontaneous style that was both defiant and pioneering,\u201d Mark Robertson, Abbey Road\u2019s Director of Marketing & Creative, said in a statement. \u201cHe turned his subjects into icons with era-defining pictures forever imprinted in the minds of fans, and yet somehow made them relatable and accessible by revealing their true personality. That his work has remained relevant and inspirational for over six decades is extraordinary, and that\u2019s why we wanted to celebrate his continuing contribution to popular culture with this one-off special award.\u201d<\/p>\n
