The grounds are vacant, the Washington monument is visible at left, and the three men are packing up the last vestiges of ceremony, the carpet where Nixon would appear as president for the last time. Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace is one in a series of official portraits Leibovitz took of the Queen, and the first time an American was selected for the task.

Closeup portrait of Pete Townshend framed by his bleeding hand dripping real blood down the side of his face. Leibovitz's advertising work, to which she brings a similar freshness and drama, has attracted many people. Her family credits her success as a photographer to growing up seeing the world through a car window. It is both mundane and theatrical - the guards could be stagehands or porters, but the presence of the carpet and the White House setting evokes the pageantry of the State.Untitled (Yoko Ono; John Lennon) depicts the couple in an intimate embrace with a naked Lennon curled around a fully clothed Ono, lovingly kissing her cheek. In 2008, Leibovitz choreographed a photoshoot featuring LeBron James and Gisele Bündchen that graced the cover of Vogue. Volume rilegato in tela avana con titolo impresso al piatto e al dorso, 237 pagine con mumerose fotografie in nero e a colori della grande fotografa americana.

It was first published on the cover of Rolling Stone and would quickly become iconic for its timing and the manner in which it immortalized the couple's devotion towards each other. The family splits their time between New York (where Massenet now runs the Imaginary Ventures fund she co-founded in 2018, which does early-stage investing in businesses such as Skims, Westman Atelier and Mejuri), East Hampton and an 18th-century manor house in Wiltshire, England. He immediately saw her talent and hired her to be a contributing photographer, and the image of Ginsberg was used as the cover for the magazine's next issue.

From 1970 to 1983, she was a freelance photographer and the chief photographer for Rolling Stone magazine, and in 1975 she served as a concert-tour photographer for The Rolling Stones band. An eventual distinction between photography and her life evolves throughout the book, as opposed to a life revolving around photography in the early days.

Leibovitz's Polaroid photo of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, taken five hours before Lennon's murder, is considered one of Rolling Stone magazine's most famous cover photographs.Also in 1991, Leibovitz emulated Margaret Bourke-White's feat by mounting one of the eagle gargoyles on the 61st floor of the Chrysler Building in Manhattan, where she photographed the dancer David Parsons cavorting on another eagle gargoyle. The magazine intended to publish the image alongside Thompson's piece but when he failed to submit, the editor published Leibovitz's images alone.
