I Want To Be A

I Dream That Someday The Step Between My Mind And My Finger Will No Longer Be Needed. And That Simply By Blinking My Eyes, I Shall Make Pictures. Then, I Think, I Shall Really Have Become A Photographer.

With Photography, Everything Is In The Eye And These Days I Feel Young Photographers Are Missing The Point A Bit. People Always Ask About Cameras But It Doesn't Matter What Camera You Have. You Can Have The Most Modern Camera In The World But If You Don't Have An Eye, The Camera Is Worthless. Young People Know More About Modern Cameras And Lighting Than I Do. When I Started Out In Photography I Didn't Own An Exposure Meter - I Couldn't , They Didn't Exist! I Had To Guess.

I Always Prefer Photographing In Available Light – Or Rembrandt-light I Like To Call It – So You Get The Natural Modulations Of The Face. It Makes A More Alive, Real, And Flattering Portrait.

Never Boss People Around. It's More Important To Click With People Than To Click The Shutter.

I Will Be Remembered When I'm In Heaven. People Won't Remember My Name, But They Will Know The Photographer Who Did That Picture Of That Nurse Being Kissed By The Sailor At The End Of World War Ii. Everybody Remembers That.
