Richard Avedon

I thought it would be useful to include some famous Hasselblad lovers like Richard Avedon. I want my final photos to have contrast like the photograph below, with intricate detail giving the photo a really serious, gritty look. I like how the background is blank, it makes the subject really stand out.

'I hate cameras. They interfere, they're always in the way. I wish: if I could just work with my eyes alone. To get a satisfactory print, one that contains all that you intended, is very often more difficult and dangerous than the sitting itself. When I'm photographing, I immediately know when I've got the image I really want. But to get the image out of the camera and into the open, is another matter' - Richard Avedon
