“It was a craft. I was a craft woman of photography.” ~ Sabine Weiss Sabine never stopped working since the day she became a professional photographer. She had no airs and graces and did not consider herself to be “an artist". But of course she was and a great one at that when it came to her personal work.She accepted commercial assignments to keep going and often was sought after by French Vogue.Here is one of her great fashion shots full of a wry sense of humor.Courtesy of Peter Fetterman Gallery
