The camera makes you forget you're there. It's not like you are hiding but you forget, you are just looking so much.

Image
I fight to take a good photograph every single time.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
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.

When I was younger, I did things with a camera I would not do by myself. I remember going down to the docks in San Francisco and asking a fisherman if he would take me out on his boat. I would never do that without a camera.

A lot can be told from what happens in between the main moments.
