She's Madeline: March 2011

Annie Leibovitz

...

"A thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people"

-Annie Leibovitz

...

I love Annie Leibovitz. She is the ultimate in photography.

The emotion and colour that she uses in her work continue to impress me.

Especially her last collection of celebrities re-enacting old nursery ryhmes and

stories that I have grown up with. She has such a different approach to her

work, it isn't just about making the model look good, it's about the story she

is trying to communicate. <3

...

"When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them. Anyone I know I photograph"

-Annie Leibovitz

...

....

I especially love that she uses Aussie actresses Cate Blanchette and Nicole Kidman in a lot of her work. These two siren's of the silver screen come alive when photographed by Leibovitz.

...

"I didn't want to let women down. One of the stereotypes I see breaking is the idea of aging and older women not being beautiful"

-Annie Leibovitz

My favourite movie characters...

I usually have a lot of characters in movies that inspire me, and make me want

to be able to dress like them in everyday life. Problem is, people would think I was

crazy. So, I thought about taking a modern fashion spin on some of my favourite characters.

Amelia Earhart: AMY ADAMS

"You've got moxy kid!"

One of my favourite characters is Amelia Earhart, played by Amy Adams in Night at the Museum 2.

Amelia is fun, cute, bubbly and full of one liner's.

I am inspired by her aviation outfit and have come up with a different spin on it.
