Photographer Annie Leibovitz said she plans more trips to the White House after collecting the Royal Photographic Society (RPS)’s top accolade at an awards ceremony in central London last night.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leibovitz picked up the RPS Centenary Medal, an award given in recognition of a ‘sustained, significant contribution to the art of photography’.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Amateur Photographer<\/em> after the presentation, held at the Royal Society, Leibovitz said she plans further visits to the White House as part of her ongoing project with United States President Barack Obama.<\/p>\n

As we reported last month<\/a>, Leibovitz was the photographer behind the first official Obama family portrait.<\/p>\n

The photographer’s long list of famous subjects have also included the Queen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Asked how she focused on her photography in the presence of royalty Leibovitz told AP’s news editor: ‘I have an advantage. I am American.’ <\/p>\n

She explained that this allowed her to ‘step back’ from her subject a little.<\/p>\n

Leibovitz this year became the subject of mass media attention<\/a> when it emerged that she risked losing the rights to her lifetime’s work.<\/p>\n

Leibovitz had reportedly borrowed around \u00a315m from New York firm, Art Capital, using the rights to her photographic archive and the value of her properties as collateral.<\/p>\n

She is said to have avoided losing copyright in her images after being given more time to pay off the loan. <\/p>\n

However, it seems that concentrating on her photography is helping to keep her mind off the negative headlines.<\/p>\n

‘I am happy doing exactly what I am doing? I can do this the rest of my life,’ she had told the RPS earlier. ‘It’s only going to get better.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
