Frederick Sommer
An artist born in Italy and raised in Brazil. He was considered a master photographer, photographing black and white landscapes and portraits.
His photos are very simplistic but can also be quite disturbing. The eyes of the girl in the photo below are very strong and catch people's attention, besides being cute and angelic. This is a key skill to have when wanting people to notice your work, always make the photo stand out in any way possible.

Liu Bolin
Also known as the 'invisible man'. Liu has his team of painters to paint him into a scene and it then makes him look like he is invisible in the photo.
I find his work very interesting, it is amazing to see how creative someone can be. It is fascinating to see someone work so hard and to go to a lot of effort just to create a magnificent photo. Liu is a very clever artist and he has used his skills to create something that no one has ever done before and he had done it to an amazing standard.

Claude Cahun
A surrealist photographer from france, also an artist and writer. Her speciality was highly staged self portraits which contained elements of surrealism.
Her photos have an element of disturbance and wackyness. They focus on the weird but wonderful. Her images are really powerful in a disturbing kind of way.

Man Ray
A surrealist photographer. He is best known for his art work, mainly because he was a painter. He was a renowned fashion and portrait photographer, before he went on to photographing surrealist art.
I attempted to recreate some of his images because I thought that they were powerful and had meaning. After successfully taking the photos, I believe that they are at the standard of what Man Ray has produced.

Henri Cartier-Bresson
A surrealist photographer born in France. In 1945 he photographed the liberation of Paris with a group of professional journalists.
His photos focus on the different patterns and the shapes and lines of different locations. He photographs at different angles to give the image a more distinctive look.

Patrick Demarchelier
I have a passion for fashion and his work is all about it! His photos regularly appear in Vogue, Vanity Fair, Harper’s Bazaar, Rolling Stone, Newsweek and Elle. Which most of them are my favourite magazines :)
His photographs have a sense of glamour and they are fashionable. They are also artistic and imaginative which really shows through some of his photos. I have noticed that he is very good with lighting techniques to make a picture look just that more better.

Annie Leibovitz
She is a high profile celebrity photographer - and I am obsessed with celebrities! Her work is a mix between portraiture and theatrical fashion.
Her photographs show an animated version of fashion and celebrities. Making the photos fun and vibrant.
