Photographer Quotes

The wandering photographer sees the same show that everyone else sees. He, however, stops to watch it Picture Quote #1

A photographer is a witness. He has a moral duty. Every picture must be true and honest. I believe a photographer’s strength is his ability to accurately record reality. There are photographers who think they are lucky if they find unusual or special subject. But it is never the subject that is so marvelous. It is how alive and real the photographer can make it Picture Quote #1

Because powerful images are fixed in the mind more readily than words, the photographer needs no interpreter. A photograph means the same thing all over the world and no translator is required. Photography is truly a universal language, transcending all boundaries of race, politics and nationality Picture Quote #1

I always wanted to be a photographer. I was fascinated with the materials, but I never dreamed I would be having this much fun. I imagined something much less elusive, much more mundane Picture Quote #1

And if a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it’s as though I’ve neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up. I know that the accident of my being a photographer has made my life possible Picture Quote #1

I’ve been so lonely trying to become a photographer. If I’d known that before, I don’t know if I had the courage to do it again. You get to a point where you feel that you have something that is your own. And if you don’t find an audience for it, you are going to burst Picture Quote #1

Art depends on there being affection in its creator’s life and an artist must find ways, like everyone else, to nourish it. A photographer down on his or her knees picturing a dog has found pleasure enough to make many things possible Picture Quote #1

You only get one sunrise and one sunset a day, and you only get so many days on the planet. A good photographer does the math and doesn’t waste either Picture Quote #1

There’s a rapport that any photographer is going to have with his subject matter. And if you don’t have a rapport, you’re going to find the task of photographing it difficult Picture Quote #1

Once digital came, I could see my images instantly right there on the camera. I think that makes you a better photographer because you can see right there if your subject’s eyes are closed or if you exposed it wrong and if it’s too bright or dark. You can fix it right here. With film, you wouldn’t know until you got the prints back if something was messed up, and then there was nothing you could do. That was a huge advantage Picture Quote #1

A photographer is responsible for creating a climate in which they can do their best work Picture Quote #1

I am a professional photographer because it is the best way I know to earn the money I require to take care of my wife and children Picture Quote #1

I can get obsessed by anything if I look at it long enough. That’s the curse of being a photographer Picture Quote #1

The awareness of the quality of space in out photos is akin to our awareness of the very air in our photos, the atmosphere that pervades every square inch of our image and yet is often invisible to the photographer Picture Quote #1

I try not to tell students where to shoot, when to shoot, or what to shoot. I feel finding the picture is the most important part of being a photographer. The actual shooting is of lesser importance Picture Quote #1

It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he or she is potentially. Each photographer, then, should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through an understanding of others and the world we inhabit. When that happens, the results, like photographs, are really the expressions of the life of the maker Picture Quote #1

A poor photographer meets chance one out of a hundred times and a good photographer meets chance all the time Picture Quote #1

It’s weird being a photographer because you really have to divorce yourself from the image Picture Quote #1

People will never understand the patience a photographer requires to make a great photograph, all they see is the end result. I can stand in front of a leaf with a dew drop, or a rain drop, and stay there for ages just waiting for the right moment. Sure, people think I’m crazy, but who cares? I see more than they do! Picture Quote #1

The picture is not made by the photographer, the picture is more good or less good in function of the relationship that you have with the people you photograph Picture Quote #1

Most of the information we now get is through television and is mutilated. Photography offers the opportunity to spend much more time on a topic. It’s relatively cheaper medium, and can allow a photographer really to live in another place, show another reality, get closer to the truth Picture Quote #1

Think like a photographer. Look at every vignette in your home like it’s being shot for a shelter magazine and style accordingly Picture Quote #1

I had no aspirations to become a landscape photographer at all. In fact it was portraiture that was my beginning, I suppose. I have always been a very keen walker, though, and I often took a camera with me on my walks. But I was, and still am, an avid reader and so when I first started I chose to photograph many of the great writers in this country to try and earn a living Picture Quote #1

I’m a documentary photographer. That’s what I’ve always wanted to be; that’s where my heart and soul is Picture Quote #1

A photographer’s main instrument is his eyes. Strange as it may seem, many photographers choose to use the eyes of another photographer, past or present, instead of their own. Those photographers are blind Picture Quote #1

A photographer who made a picture from a splendid moment, an accidental pose of someone or a beautiful scenery, is the finder of a treasure Picture Quote #1

Always remember to make room to shoot what you love. It’s the only way to keep your heart beating as a photographer Picture Quote #1

A photographer is like a writer... you’re writing with your lens so make sure you tell a good story Picture Quote #1

A creative photographer is one who either captures mystery or reveals things, everything else is useless Picture Quote #1

The fundamental issue is one of emphasis: you are not a photographer because you are interested in photography... The reason is that photography is only a tool, a vehicle, for expressing or transmitting a passion in something else. It is not the end result Picture Quote #1
