Your Pages Tully Photography Annie Leibovitz

Annie Leibovitz was born in Waterbury, Connecticut on October 2, 1949 and is still alive to this day. Annie Leibovitz was inspired with the arts when she was in highschool. She began to write and play music. She went to the San Francisco Art Institute to study painting. However, her sophomore year of college, she went to Japan with her mother during the summer and that’s when she realized she had a passion for photography. At still a young age, she experienced various jobs such as a stint on a kibbutz in Isreal in 1969. In 1970, she returned to the United States where she started her career as a staff photographer, working for the new magazine called Rolling Stone. That’s when her career truly launched.

Annie Leibovitz created unique and very different photographs. Annie became the first female chief photographer for Rolling Stone. People say that Leibovitz’s style is what helped define the look for Rolling Stone. Some of Annie’s most important contribution to photography was when she had a photoshoot with the legendary singer John Lennon. She convinced Lennon to remove his clothes and take a picture with him curled up next to his wife, Yoko. Annie Leibovitz was the last photographer to capture a photo of Lennon before he was shot and killed only five hours after their photoshoot together.

Annie Leibovitz has very different taste in photography. I like how her photos are of people, not just boring objects. Her photos contain awkward poses, strange backgrounds and random things and that’s what I love. Her pictures aren’t just normal and recognized. Instead, their abnormal, strange and weird. What I dislike is how her pictures contain people who are nude. I would prefer pictures of people in clothes because if I were to ever be a photographer, I would want to show off fashion because I love the idea of different styles and fashions.
