Photographers Quotes

I support any procedure that allows photographers to express themselves, whether that involves color, black and white, platinum, palladium and digital technology Picture Quote #1

There must be a reason why photographers are not very good at verbal communication. I think we get lazy Picture Quote #1

There’s people outside our house; you get followed by photographers; you can’t go out and have a cup of coffee with a friend without someone coming up to you Picture Quote #1

I’ve been chased through airports with a screaming baby because the photographers are ruthless, and they want the picture Picture Quote #1

What’s really important is to simplify. The work of most photographers would be improved immensely if they could do one thing: get rid of the extraneous. If you strive for simplicity, you are more likely to reach the viewer Picture Quote #1

Most photographers would feel a certain embarrassment in admitting publicly that they carried within them a sense of wonder, yet without it they would not produce the work they do, whatever their particular field Picture Quote #1

It was like two different photographers, and shot in three different locations and it was really fun to do. There were 12 beautiful girls in it. It was great Picture Quote #1

My mountaineering skills are not important to my best photographs, but they do add a component to my work that is definitely a bit different than that of most photographers Picture Quote #1

Now very often events are set up for photographers... The weddings are orchestrated about the photographers taking the picture, because if it hasn’t been photographed it doesn’t really exist Picture Quote #1

As long as designers want to dress me, photographers want to take my picture and companies think my face will help their products, then I won’t go anywhere until they’re done with me Picture Quote #1

Unfortunately, the greatest photographers don’t pay extreme attention to the clothes. If they decide to put a dress in a bathtub or in front of a cow in the countryside with dirt everywhere, well, the dresses come back... ready to be put in the garbage Picture Quote #1

When I see old photos of me on the beach I don’t look too bad... but it’s hard trying to breathe in for such a long time when I spot the photographers! Picture Quote #1

They often ask me to shoot for them. But I say no. I think an old guy like me ought not take pages away from young photographers who need the exposure Picture Quote #1

Smiles come naturally to me, but I started thinking of them as an art form at my command. I studied all the time. I looked at magazines, I’d practice in front of the mirror and I’d ask photographers about the best angles. I can now pull out a smile at will Picture Quote #1

I love going out and it is a bit sad when the photographers stop asking you for your picture Picture Quote #1

Photographers tend not to photograph what they can’t see, which is the very reason one should try to attempt it. Otherwise we’re going to go on forever just photographing more faces and more rooms and more places. Photography has to transcend description. It has to go beyond description to bring insight into the subject, or reveal the subject, not as it looks, but how does it feel? Picture Quote #1

A lot of photographers think that if they buy a better camera they’ll be able to take better photographs. A better camera won’t do a thing for you if you don’t have anything in your head or in your heart Picture Quote #1

Photographers mistake the emotion they feel while taking the photo as a judgment that the photograph is good Picture Quote #1

For spiritual companions I have had the many artists who have relied on nature to help shape their imagination. And their most elaborate equipment was a deep reverence for the world through which they passed. Photographers share something with these artists. We seek only to see and to describe with our own voices, and, though we are seldom heard as soloists, we cannot photograph the world in any other way Picture Quote #1

When photographers get beyond copying the achievements of others, or just repeating their own accidental first successes, they learn that they do not know where in the world they will find pictures. Nobody does. Each photograph that works is a revelation to its supposed creator Picture Quote #1

There’s no great mystique to photography. A lot of photographers like to put their hands up to their forehead and tell you how they’ve suffered and so forth. Well, I just rent a car and drive to the place and take the pictures Picture Quote #1

Photographers can either look out the window at the world or they can look in the mirror Picture Quote #1

The fact is that relatively few photographers ever master their medium. Instead they allow the medium to master them and go on an endless squirrel cage chase from new lens to new paper to new developer to new gadget, never staying with one piece of equipment long enough to learn its full capacities, becoming lost in a maze of technical information that is of little or no use since they don’t know what to do with it Picture Quote #1

I still think photographers should be lashed out at. They should be put in a cage where you can poke them with a stick for a quarter. But not in a hostile way, just for giggles. They really are on the attack against mankind; it’s a disease. They should be helped somewhere. But I’d still like to poke them with a stick Picture Quote #1

Outstanding past work in photography, and in fact in all the arts, is very important to today’s photographers. But it should be used for inspiration and not for imitation. These works should be something to be built upon, not to be repeated Picture Quote #1

There are a lot of cameramen but not so many photographers. And a lot of cameramen attack from a technical approach without much imagination. They look, but they don’t see Picture Quote #1

These elites, preferring to work in private, are rarely found posed for photographers, and their influence upon events has therefore to be deduced from what is known of the agencies they employ Picture Quote #1

It entered the visual vocabulary of photographers, painters and sculptors and focused on what pictures and words look like and what they can mean 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

Camera lies all the time. It’s all it does is lie, because when you choose this moment instead of this moment, when you… the moment you’ve made a choice, you’re lying about something larger. Lying is an ugly word. I don’t mean lying. But any artist picks and chooses what they want to paint or write about or say. Photographers are the same Picture Quote #1
