James Fridman

James Fridman is a British graphic designer known for taking requests on Twitter for alterations to photographs, but reliably responding with an image edited to slightly different specifications—or by taking specifications literally rather than as intended—to comedic effect. Many fans submit photos of themselves with a request to alter the image, expecting a humorous result, to which Fridman replies. He and his work have been featured in various publications, such as Cosmopolitan,[1] The Daily Telegraph,[2] MTV,[3] Huffington Post,[4] Metro,[5] BuzzFeed,[6] Mashable[7] and others regularly featuring articles on his latest work.
