Rebekka Guðleifsdóttir (born 1978)[1] is a photographer from Iceland who was named the "Web's Top Photographer" by the Wall Street Journal on 29 July 2006.[2]
Biography
She lived in Gainesville, Florida from age 4 to age 11. She currently lives in Hafnarfjörður, near Reykjavík, Iceland. Her Flickr images led to her creating and appearing in a Toyota advertising campaign.[2][3]
Her posted images at Flickr were copyrighted, but then sold by a third party without her consent.[4] "Only Dreemin" sold 60 prints, of seven of her photos, for more than £2,500. She protested by putting up a photo at Flickr named "Only Dreemin" and had text telling of the illegal sale, but Flickr removed it saying users cannot "harass, abuse, impersonate, or intimidate others".[5][6][7] Since then, the thread was put back online by Flickr and Guðleifsdóttir received an official apology.
In 2014 her book Moodscapes[8] was published. It details the art of capturing fine art landscape photography, and features images in her signature style including some self-portraits.
