Famous Photographers – 3 Photographers You Should Know
Photography is often the art of the anonymous as we rarely know who was on the other side of the camera. We can all name a few bits of famous photographs, such as that one Time Square picture or the one of the iron workers sitting above a city, but for the most part we don’t spend much time focusing on the history of the medium as an art form. Because understanding influential artists can have a huge impact on the way we view photography and may even inspire new ideas, here are three photographers who’s influence is felt worldwide:
Henri Cartier-Bresson
Although his name may not be as familiar, Cartier-Bresson was a legend in the development of modern photography. He is considered to be one of the forefathers of photojournalism and spent most of his adult life on assignment magazines like Life. Daring and fearless, Henri Cartier-Bresson captured images from some of the most volatile environments in history like the liberation of Paris in WWII, the Spanish Civil War and the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi.

Alfred Stieglitz
If you’ve ever studied photography or taken a photo class then you would likely recognize his name. Stieglitz was married to Georgia O’Keeffe, a legend in her own right, and many of his most iconic images center around her. He was known for getting photography recognized as a valid art form which he did through his innovative exhibits around the country. Stieglitz was known as the father of pictorialism. Pictorialism is where the significance of the picture is more about the way in which the photographer manipulated the image than about the importance of the subject.

Larry Burrows
Larry Burrows is a legend among photojournalists. Often referred to as the man who went off to war “with film in his socks,” Burrows is most widely known for his work covering the Vietnam war for Life magazine. His pictures were some of the most iconic and emotionally charged images to come out of the region and gave the public a view into the conflict. Unfortunately, Burrows was killed in the conflict when the helicopter he was traveling in was shot down, but his images live on, as do tales of his heroic actions – Burrows has been credited with carrying soldiers off the battle field and rescuing civilians in addition to his photography duties.

Whenever we work in any art medium, it’s important to remember the artists who came before us and the contributions they made. These 3 photographers have had an enormous impact on the validity and importance of photography as an art form. You should check out biographies or photo collections by each of these artists as viewing amazing and famous photography can often lead to great new paths.
