风格解读
以下是 FilmAnalysis 编辑对其作品整体的概括，是解读，不是史实记录。
一位保姆，用腰平取景的禄来相机拍了芝加哥和纽约四十年，几乎不给任何人看。方形画面、与陌生人的直接相遇、橱窗里的自拍。
- 色彩
- 禄来相机的黑白；后期用 Ektachrome 彩色。
- 构图
- 方画幅、腰平视角、主体居中且贴近。
- 光线
- 街头日光，常略从上方来。
- 影调
- 中等反差，完整的灰阶。
- 质感
- 中画幅的平滑，颗粒适度。
- 情绪
- 好奇、直接、有人情味。

First-edition dates only; reprints, translations and revised editions are on each book's page. What autobiographies and interviews say is the photographer's own account, not independently verified fact.
Style, as we read it
An editorial summary of the body of work by FilmAnalysis: interpretation, not historical record.
A nanny who photographed Chicago and New York for forty years with a Rolleiflex at waist level and showed almost no one. Square frames, direct encounters with strangers, and self-portraits in shop windows.
- Colour
- Black and white on the Rolleiflex; Ektachrome colour later.
- Composition
- Square, waist-level, subject centred and close.
- Light
- Street daylight, often slightly from above.
- Tone
- Medium contrast, full grey scale.
- Texture
- Medium-format smoothness with modest grain.
- Mood
- Curious, direct, humane.
