I had the pleasure to take a workshop with the legandary photographer David Burnett during GPP 2013. David is not only a great photographer he is also the most down to earth and nicest person ever.

It was really a day full of inspiration as we listened to David telling us stories of how he shot some of his famous work.

David Burnett is a photojournalist with more than 4 decades of work covering the news, the people, and visual tempo of our age. He is co-founder of Contact Press Images,the New York based photojournalism agency, now entering its 37th year. In a recent issue of American Photo magazine Burnett was named one of the “100 Most Important People in Photography” which made his mother proud as he said!

Here is some of Burnett’s famous work

44 Days: the Iranian Revolution

Bob Marley – “Soul Rebel”

The Preseidents
