Imogene Cunningham

Imogen Cunningham

Imogen was born in Oregon in 1883. She started photography was she was 18 years old. She started working for a photography business doing portraits after she graduated high school. Cunningham also moved on and married another artist by the name of Edward Curtis. Cunningham got more deeper into botanical photography after that.

This is one of her portraits before she became a more botanical photography. The photo below was more of a botanical photo. Imogen was very well known for detail and patters after her second marriage.I like the botanical photos the most because it's really interesting with all the dots and just that fact that I have no idea what it is. The portrait is good and all, it just didn't catch my eye as much as the second photo did.
