Newman's work inspired me to focus my folio on portraits of people. Newman photographed many famous celebrities, artists and world leaders. His portraits involved placing the subject amongst a setting that reflected their accomplishments in life.
"I am interested in what motivates individuals, what they do with their lives, their personalities, and how I perceive and interpret them."
"I work the way I do because of the kind of person that I am - my work is an expression of myself. It reflects me, my fascination with people, the physical world around us, and the exciting medium in which I work."
- Arnold Newman "A life in photography"
