Coming tight was boring to me, just the face... it didn't have enough information.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
At my Rolling Stones' tour, the camera was a protection. I used it in a Zen way.

Image
My lens of choice was always the 35 mm. It was more environmental. You can't come in closer with the 35 mm.

Image
You don't have to sort of enhance reality. There is nothing stranger than truth.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
The camera makes you forget you're there. It's not like you are hiding but you forget, you are just looking so much.

Photography is not something you retire from.

Things happen in front of you. That's perhaps the most wonderful and mysterious aspect of photography.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
Computer photography won't be photography as we know it. I think photography will always be chemical.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
If it makes you cry, it goes in the show.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
Sometimes I enjoy just photographing the surface because I think it can be as revealing as going to the heart of the matter.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
A photograph is just a tiny slice of a subject. A piece of them in a moment. It seems presumptuous to think you can get more than that.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
There is a myth that the portrait photographer is supposed to make the subject relax, and that's the real person. But I'm interested in whatever is going on. And I'm not that comfortable myself.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
I'm pretty used to people not liking having their picture taken. I mean, if you do like to have your picture taken, I worry about you.

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.

The subjects felt more comfortable if they played the role than if they had to be themselves.
