Annie Leibovitz

 


The picture above was taken by a well-known and profound photographer named Annie Leibovitz. The picture above provides the popular Leonardo DiCaprio and a swan, an interesting choice for a picture. Looking more into this pic it gives a sort of moody vibe, with the background of the plain grass and Leonardo DiCaprio holding the swan so elegantly. Although the picture is very different, this sort of style is very common and well used by Annie Leibovitz; she is very popular in including artists and actors in portrait photography.

Annie Leibovitz grew up with photography because of her mother, her family taking pictures to capture memories is one of the reasons why she came to pursue this sort of art. Her mother was a bigger inspiration in why she became a photographer, her mother had a passion for taking pictures of the family and memories. Switching gears, her type of photography is very unique and interesting.

Her photography stands out because she portrays many famous people as elegant and more than normal. Again, Annie Leibovitz's photography is portrait photography like her purpose is to make these people stand out more. I personally like her photos because it brings a spark to any artist in a different way, and her passion for photography is shown in her work; her art is unique, the reason why is showing in many magazines and stand out.

Bill Armstrong primarily works on this since color provides a more lush and semi-abstract while the blurriness gives it a temporal feeling of the moment. This visual approach is very sporadic but does an excellent job of providing a different feeling when looking at his work. What do I think about his work? As seen above, his work on the Falling series is a ...
