Orchard Represents by Getty Images announced today a special
multi-assignment collaboration with the internationally renowned
photographer Annie Leibovitz. Leibovitz’s distinctive approach and
signature style has led her to become one of the world’s most prolific
photographers of our generation. The addition of Leibovitz's name and
talent to Orchard Represents further enhances Getty Images’ trademark
offering of the world’s best photography, and roster of elite
photographers available for commission photography.
“Getty Images has quietly become one of the leading agencies in the
world. I look forward to working with Jonathan Klein and his team,” said
Annie Leibovitz.
“Annie Leibovitz stands above all in so many genres of photography,”
said Jonathan Klein, co-founder and chief executive officer of Getty
Images. “We are honored to represent her iconic photography and we are
looking forward to a successful partnership.”
Annie Leibovitz is one of the most well-known and celebrated living
photographers. Her distinctive, witty portraits have appeared on
magazine covers for more than thirty years and her signature work is
widely emulated. She was Rolling Stone’s chief photographer in
1973, and joined the staff of Vanity Fair in 1983, helping to
create Vanity Fair as a leading commentator on the world of
entertainment and business. Leibovitz is the recipient of many honors,
including the Barnard College Medal of Distinction and the Infinity
Award in Applied Photography from the International Center of
Photography. She was decorated a Commandeur in the Ordre des Arts et des
Lettres by the French government in 2006. A year earlier, in a
compilation of the forty top magazine covers of the past forty years by
the American Society of Magazine editors, she was awarded both Number
One (the photograph of John Lennon and Yoko Ono taken for Rolling
Stone the day Lennon was shot) and Number Two (the pregnant Demi
Moore for Vanity Fair). She has been designated a Living Legend
by the Library of Congress.
