Early life and education

After growing up in Connecticut and the North Shore of Illinois,[1] Garrabrant attended the University of Notre Dame, before studying at the International Center of Photography in New York City.[2]

Career

Garrabrant works across a range of photography genres, from editorial to commercial shoots. Her most recognized work is her collaboration with Taylor Swift since 2020, when she worked on folklore.

From the very beginning, Taylor had a clear idea of what she wanted for the album's visuals. We looked at Surrealist work, imagery that toyed with human scale in nature. We also looked at early autochromes, ambrotypes, and photo storybooks from the 1940s.
