Ok, so last night i went to the Legions of Honor Museum in San Fransico to the opening night of Annie Lebovitz's display. I met her, shook, hands, and discussed photography for a few minutes. Some of her work is very good. I feel honored to have met a living legend. It was a ritzy party, with all the big-wig donaters. It was very fancy and i had a great time.
Anyone else has met Annie Liebovitz?

Very cool, I have seen her gallery when it was at the Brooklyn museum. It was very impressive seeing all those large finely printed works.

So, what did you guys discuss?

I thought all she did was press the shutter button. Doesn't she have assistants who actually know what the cameras do e.g. exposure issues...

Annie has a full crew and they're all quite knowledgeable but Annie knows exactly what is what, technically and artistically.

well, being 13 and just starting, she just told me that it was wonderful i am starting photography at such a young age, and that it isn't so much about the gear as how you visualize things. Also, she told me to keep at it and that she is sure i will love it. It was cool. She said more stuff, and i remember it but i cant recall every detail.
