Text Quotes
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 (Pictures Quotes)
... I felt that photography ought to start with and remain faithful to the appearance of the world, and in so doing record contradictions. The greatest pictures would then... find wholeness in the torn world (Pictures Quotes)
I never claim my photographs reveal some definitive truth. I claim that this is what I saw and felt about the subject at the time the pictures were made. That’s all that any photographer can claim. I do not know any great photographer who would presume otherwise (Pictures Quotes)
We make pictures. At the end of the day, we create something potentially significant that did not exist at the beginning of the day. We go forward, despite the uncertainty. Because this is an act of love and passion, which defies reason and prudence (Pictures Quotes)
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 (Pictures Quotes)
The work I care about is terribly simple. I observe. I try to entertain. But above all I want my pictures to be emotional. Little else interests me in photography (Pictures Quotes)
If there is any method in the way I take pictures, I believe it lies in this: See the subject first. Do not try to force it to be a picture of this, that or the other thing. Stand apart from it. Then something will happen. The subject will reveal itself (Pictures Quotes)
It is essential for the photographer to know the effect of his lenses. The lens is his eye, and it makes or ruins his pictures. A feeling for composition is a great asset. I think it is very much a matter of instinct. It can perhaps be developed, but I doubt if it can be learned. To achieve his best work, the young photographer must discover what really excites him visually. He must discover his own world (Pictures Quotes)
In practice a photographer does not concern himself with philosophical issues while working; he makes photographs, working with subject matter that he thinks will make the pictures (Pictures Quotes)
Pictures are wasted unless the motive power which impelled you to action is strong and stirring (Pictures Quotes)
If you are not passionately devoted to an idea, you can make very pleasant pictures but they won’t make you cry (Pictures Quotes)
Many pictures turn out to be limp translations of the known world instead of vital objects which create an intrinsic world of their own. There is a vast difference between taking a picture and making a photograph (Pictures Quotes)
The meaning of quality in photography’s best pictures lies written in the language of vision. That language is learned by chance, not system (Pictures Quotes)
The development of a love of medium and a responsibility for one’s own pictures is an overall goal (Pictures Quotes)
That frame of mind that you need to make fine pictures of a very wonderful subject, you cannot do it by not being lost yourself (Pictures Quotes)
In the absence of a subject with which you are passionately involved, and without the excitement that drives you to grasp it and exhaust it, you may take some beautiful pictures, but not a photographic oeuvre (Pictures Quotes)
When the novice photographer starts taking pictures, he carries his camera about and shoots everything that interests him. There comes a time when he must crystallize his ideas and set off in an particular direction. He must learn that shooting for the sake of shooting is dull and unprofitable (Pictures Quotes)
It is every photographer’s responsibility to discover new images and a new personal way of looking at things. If he can do this his pictures will command attention and have surprise quality (Pictures Quotes)
The pictures achieve something rarely articulated about the metaphysical state of swimming: The body, immersed, feels amplified, heavier and lighter at the same time. Weightless yet stronger (Pictures Quotes)
Every artist has a central story to tell, and the difficulty, the impossible task, is trying to present that story in pictures (Pictures Quotes)
My pictures must first be beautiful, but that beauty is not enough. I strive to convey an underlying edge of anxiety, of isolation, of fear (Pictures Quotes)
My purpose is to create a mirror for the reader to see themselves, to create a light for people to see themselves in the characters, pictures, and stories. So they resonate (Pictures Quotes)
It entered the visual vocabulary of photographers, painters and sculptors and focused on what pictures and words look like and what they can mean (Pictures Quotes)
I work with pictures and words because they have the ability to determine who we are, what we want to be and what we become (Pictures Quotes)
It’s just money; it’s made up. Pieces of paper with pictures on it so we don’t have to kill each other just to get something to eat (Pictures Quotes)
I almost feel like its an obligation to not further the status quo if you become somebody with influence and exposure. I don’t want to paint the same painting again. I don’t want to make the same sculpture again. Why shouldnt a big movie studio be able to make those small independent kinds of pictures? Why not change it up? (Pictures Quotes)
The first thing I did in the studio was to want to tear that camera to pieces. I had to know how that film got into the cutting room, what you did to it in there, how you projected it, how you finally got the picture together, how you made things match. The technical part of pictures is what interested me. Material was the last thing in the world I thought about. You only had to turn me loose on the set and I’d have material in two minutes, because I’d been doing it all my life (Pictures Quotes)
I like my baths really deep and hot. But washing everything only takes a few minutes. So I thought it would be a waste to just flush all that water away. So there was nothing else to do but take pictures of myself trying to look as horrendous as possible. Oh my, what have I started? (Pictures Quotes)
I think theres a perception out there that people know me based on these glamorous photos they see of me in magazines, but I have about two hours of hair and makeup and then people to dress me, to make me look even better, in those pictures. Theres really so much more to me than that (Pictures Quotes)
All I want to do is model. The reason I’m coming back is for the same reasons that I became a model initially. It’s about the clothes and the creation of great pictures. I thought I was old and that I earned my retirement, and enough! It’s not enough. I want more. And I’m lucky that I still have that option (Pictures Quotes)
