Eugene Atget's Life:
Jean-Eugène-Auguste Atget was born in Libourne on February 12 1857. He was raised by his grandparents in Bordeaux he had tried out acting but eventually after a infection in his vocal cords he turned to photography and became a famous photographer in Paris. He made his money by selling photographs to the Musée Carnavalet and the Bibliothèque historique de la ville de Paris. Atget was most famous for his photographing of the Paris Streets before they were all remodeled and changed forever. I chose this photographer because i enjoy pictures of places more than people and though he was known for both he was mostly known for pictures of the streets of Paris. He inspired me to begin taking more photos but in the end I had ended up taking pictures of things besides streets.
