Born in New York City, Scavullo began his photography career with his father&#8217;s camera using his sisters as models, and after graduating high school began working in a studio that produced fashion catalogs. He soon moved on to&nbsp;<strong>Vogue<\/strong>magazine where he spent three years as photographer Horst P. Horst&#8217;s assistant, eventually winning a contract with&nbsp;<strong>Seventeen&nbsp;<\/strong>magazine in 1948 and opening his own studio in Manhattan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"899\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"78\" src=\"https:\/\/celebmagzine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_6893-899x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-78\" srcset=\"https:\/\/celebmagzine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_6893-899x1024.jpeg 899w, https:\/\/celebmagzine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_6893-263x300.jpeg 263w, https:\/\/celebmagzine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_6893-768x875.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/celebmagzine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_6893-600x683.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/celebmagzine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_6893.jpeg 1290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 899px) 100vw, 899px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of Scavullo&#8217;s portraits have been controversial, such as the nude Burt Reynolds centerfold for Cosmopolitan, &#8220;overly sexual&#8221; images of a young Brooke Sheilds, and his closed relationship with Gia Carangi.
