We know by now how to photograph poor people. What we don't know is how to photograph affluence - whose other face is poverty.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

go in over your head, not just up to your neck.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

Ours is a time of the machine,...

Ours is a time of the machine, and ours is a need to know that the machine can be put to creative human effort. If not, the machine can destroy us.

Seeing is more than a physiological phenomenon... We see not only with our eyes but with all that we are and all that our culture is. The artist is a professional see-er.

A documentary photograph is not a factual photograph.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

It is not enough to photograph the obviously picturesque.

The good photograph is not the object, the consequences of the photograph are the objects.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

Photography today appears to be in a state of flight... The familiar is made strange, the unfamiliar grotesque. The amateur forces his Sundays into a series of unnatural poses.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

To know ahead of time what you...

To know ahead of time what you're looking for means you're then only photographing your own preconceptions, which is very limiting, and often false.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

One should really use the camera as though tomorrow you'd be stricken blind.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

You know there are moments such as these when time stands still and all you do is hold your breath and hope it will wait for you.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

One should really use the camera as though tomorrow you'd be stricken blind. To live a visual life is an enormous undertaking, practically unattainable. I have only touched it, just touched it.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

While there is perhaps a provi...

While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

Pick a theme and work it to exhaustion... the subject must be something you truly love or truly hate.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

Bring the viewer to your side,...

Bring the viewer to your side, include him in your thought. He is not a bystander. You have the power to increase his perceptions and conceptions.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

This benefit of seeing...can come only if you pause a while, extricate yourself from the maddening mob of quick impressions ceaselessly battering our lives, and look thoughtfully at a quiet image...the viewer must be willing to pause, to look again, to meditate.

Dorothea Lange 03.03.2018 03:03:03 45 quotes

Photography is a lot like telling a large predatory cat what to do-while an audience of people you can't see watches you.
