It’s been a few decades since I had subscribed to Rolling Stone Magazine just so I could see Annie Leibovitz’s latest pictures. Known for iconic celebrity photographs, her gift for portraiture has set the bar very high for others to follow. Beyond capturing well-known individuals in a moment in time, she redefines their images in our memory forever after, ensconcing them in unforgettable periods of culture and history. The enduring impact of Leibovitz’s work and its singular beauty elevates photography to the realm of art. That’s why it was exciting to read “Annie Leibovitz at Work” and learn more about her sources of inspiration, her experiences, as well as both her creative and technical photographic processes. The book is understated in its design, printed on high quality stock, and the striking images are beautifully reproduced. I recommend this book for others interested in following Annie Leibovitz’s unique journey in photography, as well.
