Celeb image guide captures Scarlett Johansson and Co. in wild, intimate times

These stars are ready for their close-up.

A new e-book by British isles “photographer to the stars” Andy Gotts reveals off a wild selection of speak to sheets showcasing famous people in seemingly unfiltered, unguarded moments — often with shockingly elastic faces and in physique-baring poses. 

“The Photograph,” accessible now in the British isles and on pre-order in the US from ACC Artwork Publications, consists of a topless Rita Ora, 30, sporting an adorable pixie slash as she demonstrates off her various tattoos — as perfectly as some generous facet-boob.

Meanwhile, new mom and “Black Widow” star Scarlett Johansson — who also graces the deal with — trades gorgeous for goofy as the 36-calendar year-aged actress contorts her remarkably malleable mug.
