Photography Quotes

I adore shooting photographs. It’s like being a hunter. But some hunters are vegetarians - which is my relationship to photography Picture Quote #1

There is no truth in photography. One can’t reproduce an absolute truth. That said, I don’t see [my photographs] as being any less truthful than any other photographs Picture Quote #1

My photography changed from being more documentary-like to arranging things more, and that came into being partly because I started doing music videos, and I incorporated some things from the music videos into my photography again, by arranging things more Picture Quote #1

I believe that this whole question of some photography being true and some untrue is a non-question. Photography is not objective; it never was objective Picture Quote #1

Photography can be a deceitful, superficial medium that leads us into believing something even though we know it’s not necessarily true. It lulls us into a false sense of complacency Picture Quote #1

Photography is a small voice, at best, but sometimes one photograph, or a group of them, can lure our sense of awareness Picture Quote #1

I felt like I was in the best photography school in the world - I had Herb Ritts, Bruce Weber, Richard Avedon and Irving Penn teach me Picture Quote #1

I like photography as a recording device. It’s the best possible two-dimensional representation of 3D living things that we have Picture Quote #1

Once you make decisions, you can’t go back, but in photography, that process can continue. With film, you have to eliminate all the possibilities and make the one possibility work the best for you, so you have to become very creative with the direction you’ve chosen Picture Quote #1

Contrary to the general belief about photography, you don’t need bright sunlight: the best moodiest pictures are taken in the dim light of almost dusk, or of rainy days Picture Quote #1

Photography at first was asked to do nothing but embalm our best smiles for the benefit of our friends and our best clothes for the amusement of posterity. Neither thing lasts, and photography came as a welcome salve to keep those precious, if slightly ridiculous, things a little longer in the world Picture Quote #1

I don’t see a big difference between painting and photography. Moreover, such distinctions mean nothing to me Picture Quote #1

I love photography. My boyfriend’s got a great camera, which I bought for his birthday Picture Quote #1

In the 70s, in Britain, if you were going to do serious photography, you were obliged to work in black-and-white. Color was the palette of commercial photography and snapshot photography Picture Quote #1

In the history of photography, we have many masterpieces in terms of black and white books. You have Bresson’s ‘Decisive Moment,’ Frank’s ‘The Americans’... many masterpieces. But there is nothing to this caliber in color. Well, I think I’ll waltz with my muse and hope that I might be able to produce something on this order in color Picture Quote #1

Photography was a blessing because it filled my time. If I had to start over, I’d pursue photography - probably to the exclusion of acting Picture Quote #1

Lack of courage or means often deters the European woman from more independent business activity, and this in spite of increasing freedom to choose her occupation, in spite of brilliant examples of successful undertakings of women, in photography, hotel or boarding-house management, dress-making, etc Picture Quote #1

My friend who I went to boarding school with was interested in photography. He insisted that I buy a camera and marched me downtown Picture Quote #1

I have a cartoon I’m developing with Adult Swim called ‘Monster Town U.S.A.,’ so I’m busy doing that. Trying to do a coffee-table book of my photography that’s been requested of me a couple of times. I’m constantly busy Picture Quote #1

Photography was so perfectly suited to my sensibility and situation, it gave me a voice, a kind of crazy, out-of-whack voice, at the beginning, but a voice. I could finally put into images bottled up feelings of absurdity and alienation - and also joy and delight Picture Quote #1

I think that cinema and television have nothing in common. There is a breaking point between photography and cinema on the one hand and television and virtual reality on the other hand Picture Quote #1

I love this life. I feel like I am always catching my breath and saying, ‘Oh! Will you look at that?’ Photography has been my way of bearing witness to the joy I find in seeing the extraordinary in ordinary life. You don’t look for pictures. Your pictures are looking for you Picture Quote #1

Ballet might be too formal of a title for the type of dance I do, but I love to dance. I love to draw and paint; I do ceramics and photography. I’m interested in a lot of creative stuff Picture Quote #1

At the end of the day, photography is ninety-nine percent business, connections, and politics and one percent creativity Picture Quote #1

Look at lots of exhibitions and books, and don’t get hung up on cameras and technical things. Photography is about images Picture Quote #1

I’m really into my photography and am trying to catch up with digital generation - I was used to the old 35mm cameras Picture Quote #1

When I was teaching at Harvard in the 1970s, I went to Project Incorporated in Cambridge and took photography classes. I didn’t even know how to aim the camera in those days Picture Quote #1

I am a big fan of photography, more of being behind the camera - so when I get the opportunity to work with such great photographers, I always try and learn from their technique Picture Quote #1

We’ve lost these qualities, these abilities to do something by hand. Some illustrators have it still, but it’s just not art. We have photography. We have cameras and computers that do it better and faster Picture Quote #1
