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.

 
We are making photographs to understand what our lives mean to us.
Taking an image, freezing a moment, reveals how rich reality truly is.
 
In the world of photography, you get to share a captured moment with other people.
 
Photography helps people to see.
 
You know, I really don’t think you learn from teachers. You learn from work. I think what you learn, really, is how to be – you have to be your own toughest critic, and you only learn that from work, from seeing work.
 
There is only you and your camera. The limitations in your photography are in yourself, for what we see is what we are.
 
Be yourself. I much prefer seeing something, even it is clumsy, that doesn’t look like somebody else’s work.
 
If you can smell the street by looking at the photo, it’s a street photograph.
 
One should really use the camera as though tomorrow you’d be stricken blind.
 
If a photographer cares about the people before the lens and is compassionate, much is given. It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument.
 
If you want to be a better photographer, stand in front of more interesting stuff.
 
To me, photography must suggest, not insist or explain.
 
A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it. It is, in a word, effective.
 
If you are out there shooting, things will happen for you. If you’re not out there, you’ll only hear about it.
