Photography Quotes

I think photography was inside me. Once I found it, it became stronger than me and I took refuge in it Picture Quote #1

While photography is the easiest medium in which to be competent, it is the hardest in which to develop an idiosyncratic personal vision Picture Quote #1

It’s always seemed to me that photography tends to deal with facts whereas film tends to deal with fiction Picture Quote #1

Photography speaks a universal language that does not need translation, and with an immediacy that the written word lacks. It freezes a moment in time, leaving an indelible image Picture Quote #1

The simplicity of photography lies in the fact that it is very easy to make a picture. The staggering complexity of it lies in the fact that a thousand other pictures of the same subject would have been equally easy Picture Quote #1

Like an organism, photography was born whole. It is in our progressive discovery of it that its history lies 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

One of the things that I most believe in is the compose and wait philosophy of photography. It’s a very satisfying, almost spiritual way to photograph. Life isn’t’ knocking you around, life isn’t controlling you. You have picked your place, you’ve picked your scene, you’ve picked your light, you’ve done all the decision making and you are waiting for the moment to come to you Picture Quote #1

I want to take some quite incredible photographs that have never been taken before... pictures which are simple and complex at the same time, which will amaze and overwhelm people... I must achieve this so that photography can begin to be considered a form of art Picture Quote #1

My aim in photography is always to convey a mood and not to impart local information. This is not an easy matter, for the camera if left to its own devices will simply impart local information to the exclusiveness of everything else Picture Quote #1

Traditionally, photography has dealt with recording the world as it is found. Before photography appeared the fine artists of the time, the painters and sculptors, concerned themselves with rendering reality with as much likeness as their skill enabled. Photography, however, made artistic reality much more available, more quickly and on a much broader scale Picture Quote #1

I do believe strongly in photography and hope by following it intuitively that when the photographs are looked at they will touch the spirit in people Picture Quote #1

I enjoy singing, I enjoy music as much as I enjoy photography, doing filming and stuff like that. I do a lot of things to express who I am Picture Quote #1

Only photography has been able to divide human life into a series of moments, each of them has the value of a complete existence Picture Quote #1

For me photography is an excuse to be nosy about things I want to know about Picture Quote #1

I discovered that this camera was the technical means in photography of communicating what the world looks like in a state of heightened awareness. And it’s that awareness of really looking at the everyday world with clear and focused attention that I’m interested in Picture Quote #1

The language that photography has is a formal language. Any photographer is doing something formal. If it’s formal, then it must be an aesthetic way to communicate Picture Quote #1

I have tried to bring about better communication between people. I believe that humanitarian photography is like economics. Economy is a kind of sociology, as is documentary photography Picture Quote #1

Photography is not cute cats, nor nudes, motherhood or arrangements of manufactured products. Under no circumstances it is anything ever anywhere near a beach Picture Quote #1

Photography is an art which touches and grips one’s own heart’s blood Picture Quote #1

In portrait photography there is something more profound that we seek inside a person, while being painfully aware that a limitation of our medium is that the inside is recordable only insofar as it is apparent on the outside... Very often what lies behind the facade is rare and more wonderful than the subject knows or dares to believe Picture Quote #1

Photography has all the rights, and all the merits, necessary for us to turn towards it as the art of our time Picture Quote #1

Photography is a craft. Anyone can learn a craft with normal intelligence and application. To take it beyond the craft is something else. That’s when magic comes in. And I don’t know that there’s any explanation for that Picture Quote #1

Part of the role of photography is to exaggerate, and that is an aspect that I have to puncture. I do that by showing the world as I really find it Picture Quote #1

I can go into the wilderness and not see anyone for days and experience a kind of space that hasn’t changed for tens of thousands of years. Having that experience was necessary to my perception of how photography can look at the changes humanity has brought about in the landscape. My work does become a kind of lament Picture Quote #1

Photography, for me, is something I can control fully. It’s wholly my own expressions Picture Quote #1

Photography is only a new road from a different direction, but moving toward the common goal, which is life Picture Quote #1

For me photography is not an intellectual process. It is a visual one... Whether we like it or not, we are involved in a sensual business Picture Quote #1

Good films are not made by accident, nor is good photography. You can have good things happen, on occasion, by accident that can be applied at that moment in a film, but your craft isn’t structured around such things, except in beer commercials Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know photography would take me to the places that it has taken me Picture Quote #1
