More quotes by 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
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
I actually love talking about taking pictures, and I think that helps everyone.
Annie Leibovitz
A very subtle difference can make the picture or not.
Annie Leibovitz
As you get older, you have different tools, and you learn to use photography differently.
Annie Leibovitz
Lennon was very helpful. What he taught me seems completely obvious: he expected people to treat each other well.
Annie Leibovitz
You don't have to sort of enhance reality. There is nothing stranger than truth.
Annie Leibovitz
I sometimes find the surface interesting. To say that the mark of a good portrait is whether you get them or get the soul - I don't think this is possible all of the time.
Annie Leibovitz
Photography's like this baby that needs to be fed all the time. It's always hungry.
Annie Leibovitz
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.
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
I feel very proud of the work from the '80s because it is very bright and colorful.
Annie Leibovitz
Computer photography won't be photography as we know it. I think photography will always be chemical.
Annie Leibovitz
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
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 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
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
Most people, especially successful people, are hard-working. They want to participate. They want to do things well.
Annie Leibovitz
...I gave up on being a journalist - I thought having a point of view was more important than being objective.
Annie Leibovitz
Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.
