The Street Style Queen Worth Knowing and Learning | Photography Enthusiast

Whether you are an amateur or a professional photographer, you must know Vivian Maier! She was never taught by any master, and there isn't much information about her. We only know that she was born in New York but grew up in France. After returning to the U.S., she worked as a nanny in Chicago for over forty years. During these forty years, Vivian took more than 100,000 photographs, none of which were ever published. No one knew about this amateur street photographer until her passing. It wasn’t until someone discovered over 100,000 negatives and thousands of prints at a small auction in Chicago that fans began to organize, collect, and share her stunning works with the world.
