a legend.

One of the most legendary and notable [for lack of better words] photographers of all time passed away at the age of 92 on Wednesday.

Irving Penn
changed the fashion industry, and made Vogue magazine something people actually wanted to read. He started in 1943, which just sounds like a million years ago.

His photographs became legend, adorning the walls of museums and exhibits all over the world. He created fashion with his work, and translated it for all the world to see and appreciate.

He truly was a legend, and his work will forever effect anyone and everyone who encounters it.

This is my favorite photograph that he took. Thank you for all the fabulous, life changing photos Irving.
