Most people, especially successful people, are hard-working. They want to participate. They want to do things well.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
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 feel very proud of the work from the '80s because it is very bright and colorful.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
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.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
As you get older, you have different tools, and you learn to use photography differently.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
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.

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.

Image
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.

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
When you go to take someone's picture, the first thing they say is, what you want me to do? Everyone is very awkward.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
You don't have to sort of enhance reality. There is nothing stranger than truth.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
A very subtle difference can make the picture or not.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
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
Image
Photography's like this baby that needs to be fed all the time. It's always hungry.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
Computer photography won't be photography as we know it. I think photography will always be chemical.
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
When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them. Anyone I know I photograph.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
Coming tight was boring to me, just the face... it didn't have enough information.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
I shoot a little bit, maybe two rolls, medium format, which is 20 pictures, and if it's not working, I change the position.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
Everyone keeps asking you for pictures, and after a while you get tired of that. I always say, They are in the archives.
