Presented in a most unassuming and austere cover design with only the title and name, Wonderland is big hardcover volume that collects over 350 images ( many of them previously unpublished ) by renowned american photographer Annie Leibovitz.
As I flip through the pages of this book, many of the celebrities that make the subject matter are unknown to me, and I am more keen on exploring the photographic craft of Annie Leibovitz, how she composes and frames the pictures, the superb art direction as well as mise en scene of each image that tells a remarkable story.
During the early days of my creative career I had the opportunity to embark on the path of a fashion photographer, so this specific genre of the profession will always fascinate me, and I live it vicariously through books like these.

Wonderland is a splendid collection of Annie Leibovitz arresting fashion photography pieces. There are several other publications out there that feature some of the same images, but this particular book is the most affordable and bang for your buck. Recommended.
