Photographer slams Taylor Swift\u2019s Time cover as \u201cequivalent of a saltine cracker\u201d Twitter: taylorswift13An anonymous photographer took to Twitter\/X and viciously slammed Taylor Swift\u2019s Time cover. Everyone in the world is talking about it: Taylor Swift is Time\u2019s 2023 Person of the Year. Swift earned the distinction through sheer ingenuity on the road, in the theater, and in the studio. But she\u2019s not out of the woods yet, especially with Reputation (Taylor\u2019s Version) looming large. With all the success, there are bound to be naysayers. A photographer on Twitter\/X came out of the woodwork to blast Swift\u2019s Time cover, and they didn\u2019t hold anything back. Anonymous photographer compares Taylor Swift\u2019s Time cover to a \u201ccracker\u201d An anonymous photographer known only as IPodMacbook claims to \u201cwork on the photo team of a similarly large media company\u201d as Time magazine. \u201cLet me just say this shoot has not been deemed a success,\u201d they add in in their initial post. The subsequent thread dissects every creative decision, from the lighting choices to Swift\u2019s hairstyle, all of which he says are \u201ccompletely derivative of Annie Leibovitz\u2019s portrait of DiCaprio with swan but executed terribly,\u201d he says about the first cover showing Swift with her cat Benji. \u201cAlso the Lego hand? Like what is this photo supposed to be.\u201d 10000th boring grey background terrible hairstyling flat lighting completely derivative of annie Leibovitz\u2019s portrait of DiCaprio with swan but executed terribly also the Lego hand? like what is this photo supposed to be pic.twitter.com\/jJHYoFM33E \u2014 h (@ipodmacbook) December 6, 2023 IPodMacbook goes on to analyze the other covers. On the second, Taylor Swift stretches her arms up and over her head. The pop star also wears a sparkling top, reminiscent of \u201cMarilyn Monroe,\u201d the user notes, \u201cderivative of her shoots with Avedon, except those photos are mainly sad.\u201d \u201cJust poorly executed really,\u201d they add. obviously positing her as Marilyn monroe derivative of her shoots with avedon except those photos are mainly sad. arms retouched to fucking hell and back but still the brightest most eye grabbing thing in the photo. just poorly executed really pic.twitter.com\/8Fkq3L0ZSc \u2014 h (@ipodmacbook) December 6, 2023 Regarding the third cover, IPodMacbook doesn\u2019t mince their words. They blast the photo as reeking of \u201cthe corporate client over involving themselves\u201d and \u201cstripping all style from the image\u201d that results in \u201cthe photographic equivalent of a saltine cracker.\u201d it just reeks of the corporate client over involving themselves in a high profile shoot and stripping all style from the image to avoid risk until you end up with the photographic equivalent of a saltine cracker. pic.twitter.com\/bSnN3wrehh \u2014 h (@ipodmacbook) December 6, 2023 It\u2019s yet unclear who could be behind the posts, as the user \u201cremoved anything identifiable about myself\u201d from their page. Taylor Swift has not made a public statement, and it\u2019s unlikely she will. Knowing her, she\u2019ll just shake it off.
