They are made with the eye, heart and head.”
Henri Cartier-Bresson

It’s the hardest medium in which to have some sort of personal vision and to have a signature style.”
Chuck Close
“The only thing that matters is if it is honest..
If the picture is honest you and everybody can tell..
If the picture is honest you and everybody can tell..
If it is dishonest, you and everybody can tell.”
Arnold Newman
“You don’t make a photograph just with a camera.
You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen..
You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen..
..the books you have read
the music you have heard
the people you have loved.”
the music you have heard
the people you have loved.”
