Annie Leibovitz is a name that is familiar to us all.  She has photographed magazines including Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair.  One of the most recent photographs that obtained attention from the media was a photo that Lebovitz took of Miley Cyrus.  The photographed showed 15 year old Miley Cyrus with her back exposed and covering her front with a bed sheet.  Leibovitz stood by her work saying, "I'm sorry that my portrait of Miley has been misinterpreted...The photograph is a simple, classic portrait, shot with very  little makeup, and I think it is very beautiful."  The media interpreted it very differently.  Overall, I think her work is absolutely lovely.  Her portraits show not only what a person looks like but also seems to capture their essence and personality.
Here are a few examples of her work.
