Photographer of the Week: Elliott Erwitt

This week's photographer is Elliot Erwitt. His quirky style of catching people in their everyday environment has always drawn me to him. He was originally from France but ended up settling in New York City. He began his photography career printing pictures of stars and eventually took on the task of creating advertisements and even created a television series. His photographs sometimes incorporate humor and are many candid shots. All captions under the images are the links to where the image is originally from.
