Annie Leibovitz

Annie Leibovitz has always had a passion for photography. The summer after her sophomore year at the San Fransisco Art institute, she traveled to Japan with her mother, where she discovered her passion for photography. Since the 1970's, Annie has photographed many musicians, actors, and writers. She has photographed people like John Lennon, Whoopi Goldberg, Demi Moore, Johnny Depp and many other people. She began to work for Rolling Stone Magazine, by taking pictures for the cover. Later she began taking pictures for Vogue.

In 1989, Annie met Susan Sontag, author of the book "AIDS and its Metaphors. Annie and Susan became close friends and Annie would shoot pictures of Susan. One particular thing Annie liked about taking pictures of Susan, was that she knew how to work her body in each picture. They stayed close friends til the death of Susan in late 2004.

Here are some of Annie Leibovitz photos:

I personally love this picture because it's really cute how the kid is kissing Angelina Jolie on the forhead. It looks like a normal everyday life thing captured on film. They look like they're having fun and enjoying themselves as the photo was taken.

I also like this picture because the color of the dress goes with the background of the picture, and there's fog in the air. The girl looks like shes running from something, and the mood in the picture is peaceful but you get the feeling that there's tension. Because there's a reason she's running. If you're familiar with the farytale Cinderella you would automatically know that this picture was taken of Cinderella. You can see the glass slipper left behind bad he castle in the background, where she is running from.
