Jackie Nelson Submits Toni Frissell




Toni Frissell is an American female photographer who was trained by her brother. I am most attracted to her work when she was a fashion photographer for Vogue magazine in 1931. She captured women being active outdoors. I enjoy the perspective in which these photographs are taken and also the wonderful print quality. The most interesting photographs for me are the ones where she has photographed women underwater. More specifically "The Lady In The Water" is magnificent. The choice of the white dress and how elegantly the woman is posed is captivating.
