I have to have a modern time photographer and an older photographer. I really need to find out who i like before I can do this report!! Alfred Steigleitz was a very famous photographer in the early 1900s. He was at the center of New York photography, and was very instrumental in developing photography into an art form. Here are some links for you to check out:

Here is a link to 54,000 of his photographs:

Then there was Ansel Adams, but he was so well known that I would advise staying away from him鈥攑robably ten other people will choose him.
Here is a link to 482,000 modern photographs. You might find a photographer whose style you like by perusing some of these first:

This should be more than enough for you to check out and decide who to write about. Relax! You will do really well on this report, and it will be really fun, too!
Best wishes. Here's a list of many photographers. I just googled it, so it may work, and it may not. http://www.artcyclopedia.com/media/Photo...
The more famous photographers are Ansel Adams, Margaret Bourke-White, Henri Cartier Bresson, and Dorothea Lange. |
