annie leibovitz

When Annie Leibovitz came to talk to Syracuse she discussed her new book At Work. The book discusses how her life while working in photography. She talked about how her photos have more meaning when the person in them has passed away. I found that statement very interesting and also very true. When someone dies their memories can partly stay alive through their pictures.

The one point that I found most important was when Annie talked to her niece at the end. She talked about how this is a turning point for people in the magazine, photography, and other fields like that. From 50 years ago until now photography and the industry have already changed and now and in the future there are only more ways it can change for the better. Now is our time to start changing things.
