Stieglitz believed in Photography as fine art and he worked to promote that idea. The creator of two periodicals, Camera Notes and Camera Work, Stieglitz co-founded the group Photo-Secession along with Edward Steichen and others. He was introduced to the work of a young female artist, Georgia O'Keeffe, in 1916. Immediately impressed with her work, he exhibited ten of her paintings. O'Keeffe, who had not been consulted about the exhibit, met with Stieglitz and agreed to let him continue to show the paintings. Their association grew from there. Eventually they married.
