Mick Rock, photographer celebrated for his images of David Bowie, Lou Reed and Iggy Pop who lived the rock’n’roll lifestyle to the full – obituary

• Mick Rock, who has died aged 72, was the doyen of rock photographers; he was at one time official photographer to David Bowie and was known as “the man who shot the Seventies”. He would later confess that not only did he chronicle the rock’n’roll lifestyle, he lived it to the full as vigorously as any of his subjects.
