Summary of Annie Leibovitz and her work.

Over this term i have been studying Annie Leibovitz work and by doing this i have learnt lots of new things about how she works, her photography and photography in general in addition to ways in which i can present my photograph, last of all i have learnt new ideas for photographs and how to take them.

  • Annie Leibovtiz is a portrait photographer that works with famous people to shoot most of her photograph, she started out very small and hit a jack pot when she started working for rolling stones, this was the best thing she could have done. From there on out she because huge by photographing famous people and has done for her entire career
  • Her style is very different and original, she photographs famous people but in a fun playful way, she tends the dress them up as other people for example she dressed Alec Baldwin is dressed as the queen from snow white.  All of her photographs are very cluttered, heavy and very much CGI'ed. None of the photographs are natural, they are all set up, most of them in a studio.

  1. a strong summary - be careful to spell check and add a little more detail - for example about the richness of her images or the team of support she uses
