Favorite Fashion Photographers

 Sebastian Kim tells stories though fashion photography in a sexy, tasteful manner. I like this artist because his photos can be normal but some of them have an abstract twist.

 Arnaud Pyvka His work has grace, whimsicality, and softness. I like this artist because hes pictures are not like everyone else with the lights on the persons face. I like how he uses soft tints. 


 Ben Hassett His work is often abstracting elements of his images like hair, shadows, and poses. I like this artist because his work shows people posing is many different ways.

Kevin Carter

Kevin Carter's photos show bad things that are happening in the world. He an award-winning South African photojournalist. Carter was also the recipient of a Pulitzer Prize for his photograph depicting the 1993 famine in Sudan. I think the role of a photojournalist is to capture a picture that tells a story. These photographer has to be there for every event and make sure they capture a picture of the good or bad things. The photojournalist has to get the picture no matter if they get positive or negative feedback about the picture.
