"Annie Leibovitz at Work by Annie Leibovitz is an autobiographical account of the famous photographer's career expressed as commentary on a selection of photographs arranged chronologically. Unpretentiously discussing celebrities as clients and exotic locations as backdrops, Leibovitz's engaging voice marks the occasions of her growth as technician and artist from Richard Nixon's resignation to Barack Obama's campaign, with many stops at such places as the Chateau de Versailles and Buckingham Palace, along the way."
"This book is a series of photographs with accompanying short essays. The culmination is a wide-angle view of how Annie Leibovitz works and has worked. She discusses equipment, lighting, sets, studios, fake smiles, musicians, actors, athletes and politicians spanning the decades of her career. The move for film to digital is a quiet discussion - it's inevitable, digital is here, so we will adjust. There are some magical moments captured here. It's impossible not to be amazed by the specific historical moments that Annie Leibovitz's lens has seen - the Bush cabinet on the cusp of their war, Sarajevo during war, working with Hunter S Thompson, Andy Warhol, John Lennon hours before his death. At the same time, there is something so disconnected about her and her body of work. So many of her photographs are like the most overproduced perfect people in the most overproduced perfect settings. It makes me a little uneasy."
"I've never felt I was that influenced by Annie Leibovitz, then I read this book and began to realize that most of my favorite images from the late 70s and 80s were taken by her. Additionally, a lot of the ways she approaches a subject - a photo - are ways that I try to approach a subject (especially when she was still new).
This book gives a very quick insight into how her mind moves and thinks - its not a discussion on how she did the shoot, its more a discussion on the thoughts around her during certain times and with certain people. Truly a fascinating and wonderful recount of her career."
"Bought it sight unseen as a birthday present for my budding photographer brother. Hate to admit it but I read it before I wrapped it. Highly informative and insightful. Book was in brand new condition and my brother was blown away by the fact that it was a signed first edition! Even if unsigned, a lot of good info for any photographers who want to learn from a professional."
