Portritature- Diane Arbus



Diane Arbus
 (March 14, 1923 – July 26, 1971)
Diane Arbus shone a light on what was considered as the 'darker' side to reality as she took portraits of the people that would not normally be shown to people. they knew them in everyday life but was never documented.  At the time these people were wernt considered to be normal (dwarfs, giants, transvestites, nudists, circus performers). These people facinated Arbus so she decided to share it with the world to share her facination with these people. Arbus has stirred up massive controversy in 1971 Norman miller was quouted saying 'giving a camera to Diane Arbus is like putting a live grenade in the hands of a child'. despite quotes like this Arbus' work still sells for hundreds of thousands at auction.


portritaure is used to capture the likeness of an individual or a small group of people, in which the face and expressions are predominant. portraiture is the focus of the person's face in the photograph. normally the person in the picture will be facing the camera and will be posing in a certain way. this is more used for home use for family photos but is also used in fashiopn photography. 

Fashion Photography

When is an image a Portrait when is it a fashion photograph?

The difference between a portrait and a fashion photograph is one is trying to sell the clothes that is being worn in the photo whereas the other is about the people in the photograph. A Portrait is about the atmosphere in the photograph and is about the emotion behind the people. Your focus in drawn to the people in the photograph not on what  their wearing. Fashion Photography could be classed as a fake portrait because the models are told how to position themselves whereas in a portrait it all natural.

 Cecil Beaton


Beaton started working for vogue and Vanity Fair as a staff photographer on a regular basis in 1927.  After this Beaton went ono to setting up his own studio and one of his earliest clients was Stephen Tennant, Beatons photos of Tennant and his circle went on to be considered the best reprisentation of Bright young people of the twenties and thirties. As well as photographing celebrities he often took photographs for official publication for the royal family, he also took the famous wedding pictures of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.


Fashion Photography


Fashion photography is a genre of photography devoted to displaying clothing and other fashion items. Fashion photography is most often conducted for advertisements or fashion magazines such as Vogue, Vanity Fair, or Elle. Over time, fashion photography has developed its own aesthetic in which the clothes and fashions are enhanced by the presence of exotic locations or accessories.
Photography was developed in the 1830s, but the earliest popular technique, the daguerreotype, was unsuitable for mass printing.
In the first decade of the 20th century, advances in halftone printing allowed fashion photographs to be featured in magazines. Fashion photography made its first appearance in French magazines such as La mode practique. In 1909, Condé Nast took over Vogue magazine and also contributed to the beginnings of fashion photography. Cecil Beaton transformed the genre into an outstanding art form. Europe, and especially Germany, was for a short time the leader in fashion photography.

photojournalism part two (war photography)

Robert Capa was a Hungarian war photojournalist that took photos from the front line for life magazine. Capa's outlook on photojournalism was 'get close. then get even closer' Because Capa was a journalist he was free to drop in and out of battles whereas another wartime photographer Tony Vaccaro was an enlisted soldier who took photos whilst in the middle of battle. Capa was more well off than Vaccaro and was able to afford the Leica camera which was also used by the god father of photojournalism Henri Cartier-Bresson. whereas Vaccaro was a mear soldier and could not afford the best cameras like the leica camera. Vaccaro was most known for the fact whilst being on the front line during a fire fight he noticed a destroyed photoshop where he took the chemicals needed to produce the negatives for the photos he had already taken. he did this by using soldiers helmets and then hanging the photos on a tree over night. After the war, Capa continued to work as a combat-photographer by documenting wars such as the arab-israeli conflict in 1948. Capa co-founded magnum photography which was the first cooperative network for free-lance photographers. Henri Cartier-Bresson was also involved in creating this. Vaccaro stayed in Germany after he was discharged from the army to document post-war Germany and theyre re-building project, due to an accident in 1948 Vaccaro lost over 4000 of his World war 2 photographs. After this Vaccaro moved back to america and became a renowned Fashion and lifestyle for many american magazines.

Photojournalism part one

Henri Cartier-Bresson
 Cartier-Bresson is considered to be the 'Godfather of photojouralism' as he would wonder the streets and position himself in various places waiting for life to enter in front of his camera probably the most iconic phrase used by photographers today which is 'into this place life will come'.  

This is considered to be the greatest picture of the 20th century as before the invention of the leica camera photos would take over 8 minutes to develop and the subject would have to remain still otherwise the photo would appear blurred.
 This photo is considered to be inspirational because at the time europe was in turmoil and people said that the broken wheel in the photo (bottom left) signified the break in peace in europe. Also theman leaping from the broken  ladder into the puddle was also considered to be to do with europe as they were about to 'leap into the unkown'.
