“My favorite type of photography - apart from fashion photography - is journalism, which in a way documents something that exists in a very precise moment, that didnt exist in a moment before and will not exist ever again. This has influenced my work a lot - I usually try to make my images look like they just exist, like no effort was put into it.” WayTryingLooksMomentsEffortFashionTypePhotographyMy FavoriteJournalismDocumentsPreciseFashion Photography Author:Mario Testino

“I like the process of giving control away [at the recording]. When you give it up to people, it's another intelligent organism that digests your information completely differently from how a machine digests information. It's like you're on a sailboat, and every time you can find out how to better adjust [the sail] to make it more precise. And it's interesting to see that the musicians have their own ideas. To use their intuitive power with their knowledge that they incorporate into the music. This is the moment you give away control, you give it to someone else's intuition.” PeopleGivingIdeasMomentsUseProcessInterestingInformationLike YouMusicianMachinesIntelligentIntuitionSailOrganismsPreciseIntuitiveSailboat Author:Pantha du Prince
“Great photography comes about at the right time but it also needs the right cut that enhances that precise moment. Photography must feed on both contents and form, if it gives up the one for the other it is not going to last.” IfsNeedsGivingMomentsLastsFormCuttingGiving UpPhotographyPreciseRight TimeGreat Photography Author:Augusto De Luca
