Edwardian Creepshots

While the article is no doubt a great resource for Edwardian fashion history I can't help feeling uneasy.

There are some fantastic clothes, and I love the look of the woman above, but I am very put out by the amount of women who seem to have been unaware that their photos were being taken. 
These are creepshots, just like the creepshots of today, invasions of the privacy and the lives of women, and I find it very strange that once a photograph reaches a certain age, people seem to forget that that woman would have had thoughts and feelings too, and instead celebrate the photographer.
Still, you can judge for yourself with the article here.
