Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album. Paul & Linda fell in love, & were married on March 12, 1969. For the next three decades, until her untimely death, she devoted herself to her family, vegetarianism, animal rights, & photography. From her early rock 'n' roll portraits, through the final years of The Beatles, via touring with Wings to raising four children with Paul, Linda captured her whole world on film. Her shots range from spontaneous family pictures to studio sessions with Stevie Wonder & Michael Jackson, as well as artists Willem de Kooning & Gilbert & George. Always unassuming & fresh, her work displays a warmth & a feeling for the precise moment that captures the essence of any subject.
