Vivian Maier & Walker Evans are the two photographers I will be researching.
Vivian Maier was an amateur street photographer who lived her life suspiciously meaning difficult to understand as a nanny and caregiver in Chicago. She produced many photos that blew up on the media in the 2010. Throughout her life she switched to color photography taking pictures in mostly Ektachrome 35mm. The new way she decided to take pictures gave her an edge that she didn't have before. Her work was largely done in black and white. Black and white took away from the distraction of the colours and really emphasized the photo.
Walker Evans who was an American photographer changed photography as we know it today. He influenced the evolution of ambitious photography during the 20th century. He denied the norm of photography and thought outside the box. His most popular pictures demonstrate quotidian American life, during the beginning of the car culture and outdoors as well as the great depression. He also shot colour.
