Most people, especially successful people, are hard-working. They want to participate. They want to do things well.

It's a heavy weight, the camera. Now we have modern and lightweight, small plastic cameras, but in the '70s they were heavy metal.

Image
The work which is manipulated looks a little boring to me. I think life is pretty strange anyway. It is wooo, wooo, wooo!

What I end up shooting is the situation. I shoot the composition and my subject is going to help the composition or not.

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.

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.

...I gave up on being a journalist - I thought having a point of view was more important than being objective.

As you get older, you have different tools, and you learn to use photography differently.

Sometimes I enjoy just photographing the surface because I think it can be as revealing as going to the heart of the matter.

I didn't want to let women down. One of the stereotypes I see breaking is the idea of aging and older women not being beautiful.

In this day and age of things moving so, so fast, we still long for things to stop, and we as a society love the still image. Every time there is some terrible or great moment, we remember the stills.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
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.

Image
Photography's like this baby that needs to be fed all the time. It's always hungry.

Photography is not something you retire from.

When I started working for Rolling Stone, I became very interested in journalism and thought maybe that's what I was doing, but it wasn't.

Image
Things happen in front of you. That's perhaps the most wonderful and mysterious aspect of photography.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
If I didn't have my camera to remind me constantly, I am here to do this, I would eventually have slipped away, I think. I would have forgotten my reason to exist.

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 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
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.
