Henri Cartier Bresson





Henri Cartier Bresson was born in France and spent a lot of childhood interested in painting and music. His interest in photography began when he studied at Cambridge. He was the first Western photographer to photograph post-war Soviet Union and was well known for using the 35mm format which was the newer format at the time. Bresson was a fan of photojournalism and was also famous for creating street photography. He was able to capture a precise moment and tell an entire story from that one image.
