Annie Leibovitz Portrait Photography

American, b. 1949

Annie Leibovitz is arguably one of the best-known photographers in the world. 

Few photographers are household names. Even fewer can claim that the portraits they create are often as famous as the subjects they depict. Leibovitz qualifies on both counts.

Leibovitz has provided the public with views of movie stars, politicians, athletes, artists — you name it. Being shot by Leibovitz has been a rite of passage for celebrities of every stripe for decades: You’re not really famous until you’ve sat for her.

Graydon Carter, the longtime editor in chief of Vanity Fair, where Leibovitz has been on staff since 1983, compares her to both Frans Hals, a Dutch master of the formal portrait, and Jane Austen, a knowing chronicler of her epoch.

Although she’s technically inched past the age of retirement, Leibovitz shows no signs of slowing down — the whole world remembers the buzz over the gorgeous, groundbreaking photos she took of Caitlyn Jenner for the cover of Vanity Fair, but the hubbub surrounding the Jenner images was nothing new for the acclaimed photographer. 

Throughout her career, Leibovitz has created portraits that generate cultural conversation, whether outraged, admiring, shocked or some amalgam of all three.

    What Annie Leibovitz's most famous photo is called may be surprising. Most historians state that the image of John Lennon and Yoko Ono that the photographer snapped for the January 1981 cover of Rolling Stone is her most famous work. However, it does not have a title apart from “John Lennon and Yoko Ono, The Dakota, New York, December 8, 1980” which refers merely to its subjects and when and where it was taken (it has also appeared online as simply “John Lennon and Yoko Ono”). Leibovitz took the photo on the same day that John Lennon was assassinated outside his apartment. She has previously called it "the photograph of my life." On 1stDibs, find a collection of Annie Leibovitz photography.
