Richard Avedon


About Richard Avedon. He is one of the American famous photographer.Though thishomework of graphic design class I understand something about him.Avedon was born in New York City to a Jewish-Russian family. After briefly attendingColumbia University, he started as a photographer for the Merchant Marines in 1942,taking identification pictures of the crewmen with his Rolleiflex camera. He work on many famous department in his later day. Foe example,the fashion magazine Harper's Bazaar,Vogue magazine,dior and Time magazine. Avedon showed models full of emotion, smiling, laughing, and, many times, in action.I think Avedon is a good photographer because he make model indifferent in his camera.Not because the magic camera, it's because he put all his emotion in every photos he take.Every can take a good pictures, whether the quality of the pictures is good or not.I think the best photo can affect the looker.
