A 1947 fashion photograph taken at
Weeki Wachee spring,
Florida, by
Toni Frissell, who took up
fashion photography professionally only after she got fired as a caption writer for
Vogue. Even though her work spans the spectrum from society photography to social issues, she is remembered as a fashion photographer and recognized for her stark imagery and as being among the first to take fashion models out of the studio into nature, as this picture at the newly opened
Weeki Wachee Springs roadside attraction shows.
