I was always in front of the camera. My mom was really passionate about photography - I have pictures of my whole life. I've always just been in front of my mom's camera and it's always comfortable to me.
I turned my thoughts to a still more novel mode. . . to compose pictures on canvas similar to representations on the stage. . . my picture is my stage, and men and women my players exhibited in a 'dumb' show.
Most of my pictures are really small statements. There's a banality to them.
My goal is to create a book where the entire book-text, pictures, shape of book-work together to create the theme. The placement of images and text on the page is crucial for me.
I don't think the latest Star Wars pictures have any artistic intentions, but the original picture opened up epic science fiction.
If you're lucky enough to have captured maybe two hundred memorable pictures, you still haven't captured that much experience, have you?
You have to be aware that whenever you leave your house, you're probably going to be photographed by someone somewhere. Maybe those pictures will surface. Maybe they won't. Maybe those videos will surface. Maybe they won't. But you have to always be aware that it could be happening.
I don't get pictures taken of me when I leave clubs.
The advantage of taking pictures of the famous is that they get published.
I like to come into my workspace and feel its a living environment and not frozen, which is why I often change or add to the pictures on the wall.
My pictures are not that interesting, nor the subject matter. They are simply a collection of facts; my book is more like a collection of Ready-mades.
I like them all. They're all pictures of me when I wrote them. I have no favorite songs.
I never regarded my pictures as very much to be proud of, except in this, the craft, the style.
In fact, the new malleability of the image may eventually lead to a profound undermining of photography's status as an inherently truthful pictorial form. . . If even a minimal confidence in photography does not survive, it is questionable whether many pictures will have meaning anymore, not only as symbols but as evidence.
Motherhood has most definitely changed me and my life. Its so crazy how drastic even the small details change - in such an amazing way. Even silly things, like the fact that all of my pictures on my cell phone used to be of me at photo shoots - conceited, I know! - but now every single picture on my phone is of Mason.
Your mind will always try to complete what it pictures, so always picture success no matter haw badly things are going at the moment.
Anyone can take pictures. What's difficult is thinking about them, organizing them, and trying to use them in some way so that some meaning can be constructed out of them. That's really where the work of the artist begins.
Women are like pictures: of no value in the hands of a fool till he hears men of sense bid high for the purchase.
The very best pictures adapt themselves to many changes in meaning.
[My stories were] an excuse for making pictures.
