The photographer must possess and preserve the receptive faculties of a child who looks at the world for the first time.
Bill Brandt
Image
A very receptive state of mind... not unlike a sheet of film itself - seemingly inert, yet so sensitive that a fraction of a second's exposure conceives a life in it.
Minor White
Image
Many photographers are apt to confuse color with noise, and to congratulate themselves when they have almost blown you down with screeching hues alone-a bebop of electric blues, furious reds, and poison greens.
Walker Evans
Image
A good question has many answers.
John Paul Caponigro
Image
Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.
Aaron Siskind
Image
It is a peculiar part of the good photographer's adventure to know where luck is most likely to lie in the stream, to hook it, and to bring it in without unfair play and without too much subduing it.
James Agee
Image
A picture is a poem without words
Horace
Image
Color really doesn't have interaction if it's full of colors. It's the interaction or relationship among or between colors that makes a color image. This usually happens with a few colors, not a glut of them.
Jay Maisel
Image
It therefore should be possible for even the photographer - just as for the creative poet or painter - to use the object as a stepping stone to a realm of meaning completely beyond itself.
Clarence John Laughlin
Image
Now, to consult the rules of composition before making a picture is a little like consulting the law of gravity before going for a walk.
Edward Weston
Image
Sometimes, when I get a good picture, it feels like I have taken another nervous step into increasingly rarified air. Each good-news picture, no matter how hard-earned, allows me only a crumbling foothold on this steepening climb—an ascent whose milestones are fear and doubt.
Sally Mann
Image
Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second.
Marc Riboud
Image
You are not a photographer because you are interested in photography.
David Hurn
Image
Today my passion is still black and white. Today if I have an array of cameras in front of me the one I would reach for that I would feel most comfortable with would be a 4 X 5 View camera. I was once working in a sort of soft light situation.
John Sexton
Image
Photography is a major force in explaining man to man.
Edward Steichen
Image
There are a lot of photographers who have influenced me some of the great ones, like Herb Ritts, Helmut Newton, and [Alfred] Stieglitz. I draw from all of them. You're supposed to steal from the good ones.
Leonard Nimoy
Image
The camera should be used for a recording of life, for rendering the very substance and quintessence of the thing itself, whether it be polished steel or palpitating flesh.
Edward Weston
Image
If you are out there shooting, things will happen for you. If you're not out there, you'll only hear about it.
Jay Maisel
Image
I'm flattered by the offers I receive, but there's no real strategy to the way I choose what to do these days. If I'm in a good mood and have the time, I'm more likely to consider it. Often the photographer and team are important factors, too.
Christy Turlington
Image
Thus, during the winter of 2003 I ventured into a new arena as a professional photographer.
Janine Turner
Image
I know my idea of beauty isn't what most people's is, and the fact that I'm getting the opportunity to show my beauty and work with incredible photographers that actually take me out of my comfort zone and allow me to see myself through their work in a different way - it's a real honor.
Kelly Osbourne
Image
The way someone who's being photographed presents himself to the camera, and the effect of the photographer's response on that presence, is what the making of a portrait is all about.
Richard Avedon
Image
Take your camera off automatic. You are the photographer.
Steve Coleman
Image
As industrialization provided social uses for the operations of the photographer, so the reaction against these uses reinforced the self-consciousness of photography-as-art.
Susan Sontag
