Photography Quotes

With photography a new language has been created. Now for the first time it is possible to express reality by reality. We can look at an impression as long as we wish, we can delve into it and, so to speak, renew past experiences at will Picture Quote #1

Photography begins not in the camera but in the mind and the eye. The real work is one of noticing and appreciating, seeing things clearly and differently, and sharing that vision with others. I have developed my vision and my photographic craft in order to bring the beauty of nature to light in a fresh way that can inspire and nourish people Picture Quote #1

The mission of photography is to explain man to man and each to himself. And that is the most complicated thing on earth Picture Quote #1

The use of the term art medium is, to say the least, misleading, for it is the artist that creates a work of art not the medium. It is the artist in photography that gives form to content by a distillation of ideas, thought, experience, insight and understanding Picture Quote #1

When I first became interested in photography, I thought it was the whole cheese. My idea was to have it recognized as one of the fine arts. Today I don’t give a hoot in hell about that. The mission of photography is to explain man to man and each man to himself Picture Quote #1

The arts equally have distinct departments, and unless photography has its own possibilities of expression, separate from those of the other arts, it is merely a process, not an art Picture Quote #1

Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures Picture Quote #1

The purpose of photography is the transmission of a visualized sector of life through the medium of the camera into a mental process that starts with the photographer’s thinking about the subject he photographs and is continued in the mind of the spectator Picture Quote #1

Mapplethorpe presented the body as a sexual object, separating it from the humanity of the person. He added nothing to photography as a medium. I hold his work in low regard Picture Quote #1

Any time you talk about the look of the film, it’s not just the director and the director of photography. You have to include the costume designer and the production designer Picture Quote #1

Computer photography won’t be photography as we know it. I think photography will always be chemical Picture Quote #1

I went into photography because it seemed like the perfect vehicle for commenting on the madness of today’s existence Picture Quote #1

With photography, you zero in; you put a lot of energy into short moments, and then you go on to the next thing Picture Quote #1

Photography to the amateur is recreation, to the professional it is work, and hard work too, no matter how pleasurable it my be Picture Quote #1

I rode it once, which was up the driveway in the opening credits of the show. I didn’t know how to stop it. I actually nearly killed the director of photography, and I smashed into the sound truck Picture Quote #1

Photography is about finding out what can happen in the frame. When you put four edges around some facts, you change those facts Picture Quote #1

Moreover, photography has made it possible to fix these images and now provides us with a permanent record of each observed spectrum, which can be measured out at any time Picture Quote #1

I took to photography like a duck to water. I never wanted to do anything else. Excitement about the subject is the voltage which pushes me over the mountain of drudgery necessary to produce the final photograph Picture Quote #1

What I love about photography, and it’s the same thing I love about acting, really, is that it forces you, like, right into the moment, where you can’t be distracted, where you can’t be, like, thinking about other things or ahead of yourself or behind yourself Picture Quote #1

A photograph of a woman crying tells me nothing about grief. Or a photograph of a woman ecstatic tells me nothing about ecstasy. What is the nature of these emotions? The problem with photography is that it only deals with appearances 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

Photography is an adventure just as life is an adventure. If man wishes to express himself photographically, he must understand, surely to a certain extent, his relationship to life Picture Quote #1

One very important difference between color and monochromatic photography is this: in black and white you suggest; in color you state. Much can be implied by suggestion, but statement demands certainty... absolute certainty Picture Quote #1

Photography has the capacity to provide images of man and his environment that are both works of art and moments in history Picture Quote #1

Photography has no rules, it is not a sport. It is the result which counts, no matter how it is achieved Picture Quote #1

Photography is a contest between a photographer and the presumptions of approximate and habitual seeing. The contest can be held anywhere Picture Quote #1

Photography is a strong tool, a propaganda device, and a weapon for the defense of the environment... and therefore for the fostering of a healthy human race and even very likely for its survival Picture Quote #1

After my kids were born I found myself incorporating my photography into different art endeavours and from there it just blossomed. I have always had to have an outlet for my creativity and when my life became more about raising my family than the bright lights of show business exploring my photo art was a great outlet for me Picture Quote #1

With photography, I like to create a fiction out of reality. I try and do this by taking society’s natural prejudice and giving this a twist Picture Quote #1

Ultimately photography is about who you are. It’s the truth in relation to yourself. And seeking truth becomes a habit Picture Quote #1
