which photographer would you want to talk with?

[bfffer]

say if you have a chance to talk one of the legendary photographer (or shoot with)
who would you choose? (including the decreased ones)

(I just had this in mind don't know if anyone have ask the same thing or not...)

Boy - tough call. It would be a toss up either Steichen or Mortensen...maybe Demachy.

 

[muser53]

If actually faced with such a choice I think my mind would explode...will have to cogitate on this a awhile.

 

[redisburning]

Nobuyoshi Araki.

Honestly, he's not my number 1 favorite, but he is the person I think I could learn the most from.

 

[swoop]

Walker Evans - Dead

Tyler Hicks - Living

 

[karlori]

Robert Capa , just to hear the WWII stories and his feelings about the ruined film

 

[jsrockit]

Wow, I'm not sure I would want to meet any of my favorites... I just think it would most likely be disappointing. Hmmm, a few would be:

William Eggleston
Walker Evans
Lee Friedlander
Rinko Kawaiuchi
Stephen Shore
Martin Parr

William Mortensen, mostly for his great inovative ideas on lighting of all types.

And how he even came up with stuff like this:

[kdemas]

I'm going to go with HCB and Francesca Woodman, just because.

 

[steamer]

Just off the top of my head: I'd like to talk to Robert Capa and Brassai. Also love to go out drinking with Araki.

 

[Chinasaur]

Alfred Eisenstaedt

 

[DSkjaeve]

Elliott Erwitt. Also Leonard Freed, Richard Kalvar and of course I wouldn't say no to HCB or Marc Riboud.

 

[back alley]

Alfred Eisenstaedt

he's my second choice!

 

[Araakii]

Nobuyoshi Araki.

Honestly, he's not my number 1 favorite, but he is the person I think I could learn the most from.

[johannielscom]

Anton Corbijn.

He's created some stunning portraits and has also directed two fantastic movies (Control, on the life and death of Joy Divisions singer Ian Curtis, and The American, George Clooneys least spoken film ever).

I'd also like to finally meet Chris Weeks eye to eye.

 

[Joosep]

Elliott Erwitt.
