at work

last night i went to hear annie leibovitz talk about her new book at work.

i had flipped through her previous book life work so i was pleasantly surprised to find that her newest book was less a story through pictures and more about her life as a photographer, her creative process and the technique around some of her most famous pieces.

whether or not you like leibovitz's work, it's impossible to deny her impeccable style or the way she captures people. hearing her speak about being a professional and yet being personal enough to gain people's trust was really inspiring. although the book isn't stocked with eye candy, it's an interesting read for anyone looking for photographic inspiration (or inspiration at all) should definitely pick up a copy.
