New York Loves Bill Cunningham


I got to watch "Bill Cunningham New York" at Film Forum over the weekend.  Cunningham is a "New York Times" street photographer capturing truly candid street fashion photos since the 1970's.  I couldn't get over how hard he works physically at the age of 80.  He also lived such an ascetic life.  For someone so well known & loved, I wished a less lonely life for him.  I hope to meet him one day.  It would be a dream to be a subject of one of his pictures, but I really would love to just get acquainted with him.  I adore anyone I can talk fashion passionately with!  

You can read about him in his own words here.
