William Eggleston
William Eggleston, is an American photographer. He is widely credited with increasing recognition for color photography as a legitimate artistic medium to display in art galleries. He was Born on July 27th 1939. He came from America.
He was at the forefront of the New Colour Photography movement in the United States and elevated the snapshot to an art form. He liked the strength and saturation of colour.
I've looked at the book called Photography, The 50 most influential Photographers. Published in 2009. page 50 to 51.

William Eggleston has taken this photo of colour with a low angle because he looked up. The roof is grey and the sky is blue. This photo has been taken with a narrow depth of field. The roof is in the foreground and the peaches and coca cola are in the background

I see pink and blue which are bright colours. The background is dark and the face is bright. The blue is saturated colour.

I see yellow, orange and blue. Blue and orange are contrasting colours. The colours are bright so they are saturated. This photo is a shallow depth of field. The photo is zoomed right in and crops out some of her face.
