@lizlippphoto
Elizabeth Lippman is a WEBBY and ADDY-winning director of commercials, fashion, branded and doc content, short films and music videos; the co-creator and photographer of the Life As A Runway column in The New York Times; and the co-creator and Director of Allure's The Power of Beauty series.
She was a 2019 Finalist for the Commercial Director’s Diversity Program and a CDDP Workshop Participant.
Elizabeth started her career as as a news photographer in Washington, D.C., London, Detroit, and New York, and she endeavors to bring that authenticity and immediacy to her portrait, fashion, lifestyle and directing work, using immersive camera work, sumptuous visuals, and bracingly honest interviews.
In 2010, her directorial debut, zombie/fashion film mash-up Short, “Last Seen Wearing”, starring David Dastmalchian, was accepted to the 2010 Sitges Film Fest and led its famed “zombie walk” .
Her work for clients including Pfizer, UPS, The Rockettes, IBM, Extra Gum, Michael Kors, Bloomingdales, and Amazon, picked up right where Life As A Runway left off -- blending the microcosms of life and style with her inquisitive, documentary eye, as she endeavors to get to the human heart of each story. Her work has a natural bent towards female empowerment and Diversity and Inclusion.
Elizabeth likes to say she tries to bring humor and humanism to her work.
A piece Elizabeth directed for Michael Kors, “Time To Shine”, made history as the first ad ever to run on Instagram.
Fun facts: She once went on an accidental date with Mel Brooks....
... and he laughed at her jokes.
