I caught a television programme last year about the photographer Annie Leibovitz. It was basically the story of her life; how she ‘discovered’ photography and how she got to where she is now…an extremely sought-after photographer who has shot some of the world’s most famous and influential people. I was definitely inspired by her story and her photos…her ‘most intimate’ book is ‘A Photographer’s Life: 1990 – 2005′ containing celebrity portraits, family photos and photos of herself, she writes in the introduction; “This is one life, and the personal pictures and the assignment work are all part of it.”

Leibovitz has been working for Vanity Fair since 1983, her style appears vivid and dramatic with a classic edge; recognisable in all of her photos: http://www.vanityfair.com/
