I Heart Photography

I love portraits of everyday people and random things. Here are just a few images from some of my favorite photographers. Check it out...


Juliana Beasley

A handout photograph by Diane Arbus entitled "Masked boy with friends, Coney Island, N.Y. 1956" is seen here courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The entire archive of New York photographer Arbus -- known for her images of dwarfs, nudists and carnival performers -- has found a home at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The estate of Arbus, who committed suicide in 1971, is giving her archives to the museum, which will turn it into a resource for scholars and the public. The archive includes negatives and contact prints of 7,500 rolls of film, along with hundreds of her early photos, personal papers, correspondence, her photo library and other books, photos by other artists, and glassine print sleeves that she personally annotated.
