I realize that we all do express ourselves, but those who express that which is always being done are those whose thinking is almost in every way in accord with everyone else. Expression on this basis has become dull to those who wish to think for themselves.
Harry Callahan
Image
There is no special way a photograph should look.
Garry Winogrand
Image
...I would never choose a subject for what it means to me. I choose a subject and then what I feel about it, what it means, begins to unfold.
Diane Arbus
Image
I never wanted to be called an artist. I wanted to be called a photographer.
Richard Avedon
Image
A lot of people have done that over the years. Many of the agencies today were started by photographers. It's a normal progression. It wasn't some crazy idea, it was just, Can we start our own agency? Can we do this?
Jeff Vespa

I was photographing every meal I ate, every person I met, every waiter or waitress who served me, every bed I slept in, every toilet I used.
Stephen Shore

I don't just look at the thing itself or at the reality itself I look around the edges for those little askew moments-kind of like what makes up our lives-those slightly awkward, lovely moments.

I've learned over the years that when you get a clue to another possibility to follow it through.

If it is practiced by a man of taste, the photograph will have the appearance of art (but) the photographer must...intervene as little as possible, so as not to lose the objective charm which it naturally possesses.
Henri Matisse
Image
While we cannot describe its appearance (the equivalent), we can define its function. When a photograph functions as an Equivalent we can say that at that moment, and for that person the photograph acts as a symbol or plays the role of a metaphor for something that is beyond the subject photographed.

Typically I see it with photographers who go to a place like India or Nepal, and everything's so colorful and exotic and they think, therefore, a picture's been taken.
Sam Abell
Image
There's no particular class of photograph that I think is any better than any other class. I'm always and forever looking for the image that has spirit! I don't give a damn how it got made.
Minor White

I had this notion of what I called a democratic way of looking around, that nothing was more or less important.
William Eggleston
Image
Some have said that if you take a great picture in color and take away the color, you'll have a great black-and-white picture. But if you're shooting something about color and you take away the color, you'll have nothing.
Jay Maisel

A photographer must always work with the greatest respect for his subject and in terms of his own point of view.
Henri Cartier-Bresson
Image
Passion is in all great searches and is necessary to all creative endeavors.
W. Eugene Smith
Image
Out in the field I try not to hold expectations. I try to achieve an openness. The senses heighten so that I am totally immersed in what's happening at the moment. I want to be receptive to an image coming together.
Keith Lazelle
Image
Thoughtfulness begins with seeing. My job as a photographer is to make that seeing easier. What we appreciate, what fascinates us, we will strive to preserve.
Mattias Klum
Image
I wanted life to be episodic. I wanted to be a magazine photographer and I was willing to do what it took to become that.
Sam Abell
Image
I am a deeply superficial person.
Andy Warhol

Photography helps people to see.

There's this way that photography is always about going out searching. I'm not the kind of a photographer who can photograph my home.
Justine Kurland

I made 10 times as many images as the other students, he says of the early years. I destroyed all those negatives except a few. I did it as a reminder that you can't afford to waste time: take it seriously.
