Vanity Fair Photographers

This morning I was just browsing through the Vanity Fair website and I decided to look up other work by the photographers Annie Leibovitz and Mario Testino. Their names seemed to pop up most often. For example, Mario Testino shot the cover photo featuring Kristen Stewart as the "Hollywood Belle Rebel"





 I first began looking at the work of Annie Leibovitz when it was suggested to me while I was researching Viktor and Rolf for a Fashion project. I absolutely love some of the shoots she does.


Viktor and Rolf as the Mad Hatters in Alice in Wonderland

Scarlett Johansson as Cinderella in the Disney portrait series
Zac Efron and Snow White as Sleeping Beauty in the Disney portrait series
