Bill Cunningham

Before the Sartorialist, there was Bill Cunningham, a fashion 
photographer for The New York Times, known for his candid 
and street photography.
 Cunningham dropped out of Harvard University in 
1948 and moved to New York.
 He worked in advertising, as a milliner, worked at the 
Chicago Tribune, Women's Wear Daily, Soho News, 
Details and The New York Times.
 “We all get dressed for Bill Cunningham”  - Anna Wintour

I just watched his movie on Netflix

He who seeks beauty will find it.

This painting was mostly painted with 
a strand of her hair

And she is really good at cinemagraphs, an artistic and
more sophisticated form of animated GIFs that fit somewhere
