I am impressed with what happens when someone stays in the same place and you took the same picture over and over and it would be different, every single frame.

More quotes by Annie Leibovitz
It's a heavy weight, the camera. Now we have modern and lightweight, small plastic cameras, but in the '70s they were heavy metal.
Annie Leibovitz
You don't have to sort of enhance reality. There is nothing stranger than truth.
Annie Leibovitz
I love having the photograph in my hand. I love looking at the photograph. I love looking at a box of photographs. I just love the still photograph.
Annie Leibovitz
My early childhood equipped me really well for my portrait work: The quick encounter, where you are not going to know the subject for very long. These days I am much more comfortable with the fifteen minute relationship, than I am with a life long relationship.
Annie Leibovitz
Nature is so powerful, so strong. It takes you to a place within yourself.
Annie Leibovitz
Computer photography won't be photography as we know it. I think photography will always be chemical.
Annie Leibovitz
I admired the work of photographers like Beaton, Penn, and Avedon as much as I respected the grittier photographers such as Robert Frank. But in the same way that I had to find my own way of reportage, I had to find my own form of glamour.
Annie Leibovitz
I’d like to think that the actions we take today will allow others in the future to discover the wonders of landscapes we helped protect but never had the chance to enjoy ourselves.
Annie Leibovitz
What I learned from Lennon was something that did stay with me my whole career, which is to be very straightforward. I actually love talking about taking pictures, and I think that helps everyone.
Annie Leibovitz
I was scared to do anything in the studio because it felt so claustrophobic. I wanted to be somewhere where things could happen and the subject wasn't just looking back at you.
Annie Leibovitz
When I'm asked about my work, I try to explain that there is no mystery involved. It is work. But things happen all the time that are unexpected, uncontrolled, unexplainable, even magical. The work prepares you for that moment. Suddenly the clouds roll in and the soft light you longed for appears.
Annie Leibovitz
When you are younger, the camera is like a friend and you can go places and feel like you're with someone, like you have a companion.
Annie Leibovitz
Everyone has a point of view. Some people call it style, but what we're really talking about is the guts of a photograph. When you trust your point of view, that's when you start taking pictures.
Annie Leibovitz
What I am interested in now is the landscape. Pictures without people. I wouldn't be surprised if eventually there are no people in my pictures. It is so emotional.
Annie Leibovitz
When I take a picture I take 10 percent of what I see.
Annie Leibovitz
My hope is that we continue to nurture the places that we love, but that we also look outside our immediate worlds.
Annie Leibovitz
In a portrait, you have room to have a point of view. The image may not be literally what's going on, but it's representative.
Annie Leibovitz
As a young person, and I know it’s hard to believe that I was shy, but you could take your camera, and it would take you to places: it was like having a friend, like having someone to go out with and look at the world. I would do things with a camera I wouldn’t do normally if I was just by myself.
Annie Leibovitz
One doesn't stop seeing. One doesn't stop framing. It doesn't turn off and turn on. It's on all the time.
Annie Leibovitz
I still need the camera because it is the only reason anyone is talking to me.
Annie Leibovitz
