We’ve already done a photography namestorm, but I received a request for a namestorm about photographers specifically.
Some of these names I found in the comments to the earlier namestorm (thank you Nancy, Bridgett and Julie) and others I found on various photography websites.
- Alfred, for Alfred Eisenstaedt (who took that famous V-J Day shot) and Alfred Stieglitz.
- Anna-Lou (or Annie), for Anna-Lou “Annie” Leibovitz.
- Ansel, for Ansel Adams.
- Berenice, for Berenice Abbott.
- Carleton, for Carleton Watkins.
- Dorothea, for Dorothea Lange.
- Edward, for Edward Steichen and Edward Weston.
- Eugene, for Eugène Atget and W. Eugene Smith.
- Galen, for Galen Rowell.
- Garry, for Garry Winogrand.
- Harry, for Harry Callahan.
- Helen, for Helen Levitt.
- Henri, for Henri Cartier-Bresson.
- Imogen, for Imogen Cunningham.
- Irving, for Irving Penn.
- Julia, for Julia Margaret Cameron.
- Margaret, for Margaret Bourke-White.
- Mathew, for Mathew Brady.
- Richard, for Richard Avedon.
- Roger, for Roger Fenton.
- Robert, for Robert Capa and Robert Adams.

Who else would you add to this list?
What interests/activities should we namestorm about next?
I have always thought Ansel was quite cute.
