After last week’s episode about documenting everyday life, Zach wanted to talk about some famous photographers who documented their own life, and specifically their family.Documentary photographers are known for telling stories about hard-hitting issues in the world. But some well-known photographers have very famous images that focus on their own family members or home life.Seeing how fine art, documentary, and street photographers chronicle their own family can show us how this type of work is important for any of us to do.“Photography is nothing–it's life that interests me.” - Henri Cartier-Bresson Index0:00 - Intro: Courtney helps Zach gain a deeper appreciate for Sally Mann5:27 - Sabine Weiss & her husband Hugh Weiss7:04 - W.
