Glossy Blogger Iveta On Legendary Photographer Richard Avedon
Richard Avedon: a true master of photography… when you look at his photos, you can see how he captures real expressions and emotions but also true character of a person…it’s quiet amazing.
The illustration I’ve made of him is from his younger years, just look at those cheekbones! Talented and revolutionary, you’ll always have a special place in my heart Richard 
. Who wouldn’t love to have a portrait done by him?
“I always prefer to work in the studio. It isolates people from their environment. They become in a sense… symbolic of themselves. I often feel that people come to me to be photographed as they would go to a doctor or a fortune teller – to find out how they are.”
- Avedon
Interesting fact: Audrey Hepburn was Avedon’s ultimate muse in the 50’s and 60’s
“I am, and forever will be, devastated by the gift of Audrey Hepburn before my camera. I cannot lift her to greater heights. She is already there. I can only record. I cannot interpret her. There is no going further than who she is. She has achieved in herself her ultimate portrait.”
-Avedon
