- Kate Beckinsale photographed by Harry Borden for Eat Soup magazine on 19 March 1997. Watched a short video about this photo, which is striking, then searched for more, and I have to say, very few photos of Kate Beckinsale do much more than document her outward appearance. As art, they’re nothing.
- Kate Beckinsale photographed by James White for GQ UK, February, 2004. White is vaguely trying to conjure an interesting photo, but Beckinsale projects nothing but superficial beauty. She’s a cypher. She’s just there, in front of camera, abstractedly going through the motions.
- Beckinsale fares much better in the promotional posters and stills for UNDERWORLD.
