I hope you guys don't mind me posting two threads so close to each other. I'm doing my job employment training program this week at Marshall's, putting anti-theft tags on women's shoes and stripping the plastic off of new clothes in the back room. A ****ty way to spend four hours a day.

Anyway, I recently thinking about all of the various photographers Stevie's had over the years, and I narrowed the two most famous down to Neal Preston and Herbert Worthington. Obviously, Worthington's pictures of Stevie are the most iconic. On the other hand, most of them are just posed "glamour" shots for publicity purposes. Neal Preston's photos tend to be a lot less posed and artificial, more "off the cuff," and even his publicity stills seemed to exude a more subtle, well, "Stevieness" than Herbert's. Unfortunately, he's also responsible for that horrible Clinton Inauguration series, but it's not his fault that Stevie looked the way she did. Maybe I'm just biased towards Neal Preston because I got to see so many of his pictures in high-res. :shrug:
