During the 1980's Leibovitz started to work on a number of high profile campaigns. in 1996, Leibovitz worked as the official photographer for the summer olympics in Atlanta, Georgia.
One of Leibovitz's most famous photos:
Lighting: the light is coming in from the right side of her face (our left)
location: the location looks like it is in a studio with a day gray backdrop
camera setting: the camera looks like it would have a really fast shutter speed so it can capture the movement of her hair so it isn't blurry
body position: the model looks to be standing straight forward
clothing and props: you can't really see the clothing but a prop is probably a fan to get her to blow across her face and she also has makeup on to make her face look dirty.
