Famous environmental portrait photographers

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I've been getting into shooting on location portraits and was wondering if people knew some famous environmental portrait photographers in the likes of Arnold Newman or Albert Watson. </p>

<p>p</p>

<p>Try <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=alfred+eisenstadt&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a">Alfred Eisenstadt</a>. He created some inspired environmental portraiture with a 35mm before 35mm was cool.</p>

<p>Bravo did quite a few environmental portraits.</p>

<p>Here's a few off the top of my head:</p>

<p>Avedon did go outside the studio</p>

<p>Jane Bown</p>

<p>Robert Bergman</p>

<p>Gerard Malanga</p>

<p>Bill Owens</p>

<p>Mary Ellen Mark</p>

<p>Paul Fusco</p>

<p>Platon</p>

<p>That should keep you busy.</p>

<p> </p>

<p><a href="http://www.pacemacgill.com/duanemichals-31-6.html">Duane Michals </a>worked almost entirely outside the studio. Many of Irving Penn's greatest portraits were also done "on location", but he found locations and brought his subjects there, or like Avedon, created a studio on location, using only daylight. <a href="http://www.clayenos.com/">Clay Enos</a> also works this way, to great effect. I think <a href="http://www.faheykleingallery.com/featured_artists/sturges/sturges_frames.htm">Jock Sturges</a> certainly is one of the best environmental portraitists... then there's <a href="http://www.faheykleingallery.com/featured_artists/winters/pers_page/winters_frames.htm">Dan Winters'</a> location stuff and <a href="http://www.peteryang.com/">Peter Yang</a>... geeze it goes on and on.. t</p>

<p>Arnold Newman.</p>

<p>August Sander</p>

<p>I was going to post a link to Masters of Fine Art Photography but it seems the site is gone.</p>

<p>I did find this, however. A treasure trove! (saved it to my favorites)<br>
