André Kertész has two qualities that are essential for a great photographer: an insatiable curiosity about the world, about people, and about life, and a precise sense of form.
Brassai
Image
Don't look for depth but instead search for subject aspects which prove the presence of depth.
Andreas Feininger
Image
The authentic thing is to follow your heart, your instincts, your emotions. If you located yourself in an idea, your life would be lived very sadly.
Emmet Gowin
Image
Many photographers feel their client is the subject. My client is a woman in Kansas who reads Vogue. I'm trying to intrigue, stimulate, feed her. My responsibility is to the reader. The severe portrait that is not the greatest joy in the world to the subject may be enormously interesting to the reader.
Irving Penn

I used to not be confident. My father certainly didn't add to my confidence. When I was 17 or 18, I was voted the most beautiful girl in England by the association of press photographers. When they called Daddy for a comment, he said, 'I'm amazed. She's a nice looking girl, but nothing special.'
Joan Collins

I am a professional photographer because it is the best way I know to earn the money I require to take care of my wife and children.

I'm not a photographer, so I need all the help I can get when it comes to make a picture look cool.
Hunter Hayes
Image
An artist must be ruthlessly selfish.
W. Eugene Smith
Image
My interest in photography did not begin with books or mentors, or with any burning desire to see the world through a camera. It evolved from an intense devotion to mountains and wilderness that eventually shaped all the parts of my life and brought them together.
Galen Rowell
Image
I believe that... my first successes in my out-of-focus pictures were a fluke. That is to say, that when focusing and coming to something which, to my eye, was very beautiful, I stopped there instead of screwing on the lens to the more definite focus which all other photographers insist upon.
Julia Margaret Cameron
Image
I try to take what voice I have and I give it to those who don’t have one at all.
W. Eugene Smith
Image
I certainly never wanted to be a photographer to bore myself. It's no fun - life is too short.
Garry Winogrand
Image
I agree that all good photographs are documents, but I also know that all documents are certainly not good photographs. Furthermore, a good photographer does not merely document, he probes the subject, he 'uncovers' it.
Berenice Abbott
Image
Photography is the only language that can be understood anywhere in the world.
Bruno Barbey
Image
Photographers must learn not to be ashamed to have their photographs look like photographs.
Alfred Stieglitz
Image
I always thought that one of the reasons why a painter likes especially to have other painters look at his or her work is the shared experience of having pushed paint around.
Chuck Close
Image
All knowledge is self-reflective.
Jerry Uelsmann
Image
I didn’t write the rules. Why would I follow them?
W. Eugene Smith
Image
The camera is for us a tool, not a pretty mechanical toy ... people think far too much about techniques and not enough about seeing.
Henri Cartier-Bresson
Image
If you don't have a camera, the best thing you can do is describe how great it looked.
Jay Maisel
Image
Making any statement of your feelings is risky. It's just like making pictures.
Joel Meyerowitz
Image
In some areas, [Getty Images has] more images than the rest of the market put together. But libraries are being built up at a terrific pace. A photographer in a lifetime will produce maybe a million images, and there are about 15,000 professionals at work out there.
Mark Getty
Image
Images are altered in many ways, to many degrees, and for many reasons, so it's important for viewers to be informed of both.
John Paul Caponigro
Image
I don't believe a person has a style. What people have is a way of photographing what is inside them. What is there comes out.
Sebastiao Salgado
