Imogen Cunningham was born in Portland, Oregon in 1883. When Imogen was 8 she bought her first camera. She was inspired by Gertrude Kasebier in 1906 when she went to the University of Washington Seattle. After graduating in 1907 she went to work with Edward S.Curtis to learn about portraits business and practical photography. In 1973 her work was exhibited at Rencontres d'Arles festival in France. In June 24, 1976 at the age of 93 Imogen Cunningham passed away in.
My group was inspired by Imogen Cunningham because we liked how she took all her pictures in black and white. Also how she made all the pictures look good in black and white no matter which kind of picture it was. How she just focued on two major objects which were portraits and of flowers.
