Welcome to Shutter Stories
This website will explore the work and history of renowned photographers Dorothea Lange, Ansel Adams, Imogen Cunningham and Gordon Parks, focusing on their iconic photographs, the stories behind them, and their lasting influence on photography and society. What makes the project unique is the inclusion of a personal perspective, where I reflect on how their themes and techniques resonate with me as a creator and connect to contemporary issues like social justice, environmental conservation, and cultural identity. By analyzing existing photography websites, I will identify gaps or overlooked aspects, such as the challenges these photographers faced and the cultural nuances of their work, to present fresh and engaging content.
