Spotlight On: Photographer Mark Shaw

I started off the day googling various images of Jackie Kennedy: that iconic First Lady in which everyone strives to be. I noticed that the name "Mark Shaw" appeared in a lot of the results and started some investigating. Shaw is most famous for shooting family pictures of the First Family. He worked with LIFE magazine for 16 years and within that time frame, has shot 27 covers, and over 100 stories. He has also worked with reputable publications such as Harper's Bazaar and Mademoiselle and has shot the likes of Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Pablo Picasso, Cary Grant, Elizabeth Taylor, Coco Chanel, and Yves Saint Laurent, just to name a few. There are so many beautiful pictures that I found captivating, but here are a few of my favorites below:
