Totally agree with you, Janette! Hopefully, there is a way to integrate all accounts in the near future.

I highly recommend to all photographers and filmmakers to watch and STUDY the mini-series Ripley on Netflix (if you have access of course). Every frame is a photograph and the cinematography is gorgeous! Bonus if you love #blackandwhitephotography

Self Portrait, New York, NY October 18, 1953, Photograph by Vivian Maier
https://www.vivianmaier.com/
Maier’s massive body of work would come to light when in 2007 her work was discovered at a local thrift auction house on Chicago’s Northwest Side. From there, it would eventually impact the world over and change the life of the man who championed her work and brought it to the public eye, John Maloof.
Currently, Vivian Maier’s body of work is being archived and cataloged for the enjoyment of others and for future generations. John Maloof is at the core of this project after reconstructing most of the archive, having been previously dispersed to the various buyers attending that auction. Now, with roughly 90% of her archive reconstructed, Vivian’s work is part of a renaissance in interest in the art of Street Photography. -- vivianmaier.com

From the series, Separation. Photograph by Laura Pannack
https://laurapannack.com/projects/separation/#ok
Separation Love is one of life’s mysteries. It is something that most can relate to and yet there is no one emotion that defines it. Love can bring elation, it can also bring despair. Separation explores the angst and myriad emotions experienced by London-based couples who, as a result of Brexit, have been forced to contemplate separation. With Britain soon to sever its ties with the European Union, tens of thousands of people face the possibility of losing their right to work in the UK, not to mention being forced out of the country that they share with their partner. Brexit has long garnered column inches for its political implications, but what does it mean for love? -- Laura Pannack

Ed Sheeran, 2023. Photograph by Annie Leibovitz
https://www.instagram.com/annieleibovitz/?hl=en
Annie has worked constantly for the better part of 50 years. Which is maybe how she became such a master, and such a chameleon. I’ve read detractors who say all of her work is the same, it’s formulaic. And yes, digital era Annie often employs a low-contrast, desaturated, dark and moody look familiar to anyone who’s picked up Vogue or Vanity Fair in the last 15 years. But prior to that she had another look. And prior to that, another. And all the while she code switches and shifts gears continuously, project to project, drawing on her vast photographic vocabulary. So yes, she often employs an identifiable style for her celebrity portraits, but it is just one of many. --Bill Sawalitch, In Defense of Annie

"I only know how to approach a place by walking. For what does a street photographer do but walk and watch and wait and talk, and then watch and wait some more, trying to remain confident that the unexpected, the unknown, or the secret heart of the known awaits just around the corner." -- Alex Webb

American actors Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. 1951. Photograph by Philippe Halsman
https://www.magnumphotos.com/arts-culture/philippe-halsman-jump-book/
Halsman asked all of his most famous and accomplished sitters to jump for his camera. He embraced the posture as an art form, finding that it opened up a whole new mode of portraiture. Through liberating his subjects from the conventions of traditional portrait photography, jumping also provided a way to gain insight into their psyche, and Halsman identified it as a new psychological tool, which he termed Jumpology.

Paul Roth, executive director of the Richard Avedon Foundation, described Avedon as a "whirling dervish of a photographer" who created "meticulously constructed fantasies" about his subjects and their clothes.--Chris Bergeron, Metro West Daily.
