sometimes camera lenses see more than naked eyes.

mom

i don't always like sharing my work - you see way too much.

connie

i think honesty makes the best images.

amy

if eyes are windows to the soul, i think smiles are windows to the heart.

me

i think the camera lens is some sort of magic mirror.

sarah

the desire for image for me is a bottomless pit - always craving for more.

daniela

i make pictures, because it's easier than talking.

tanya

always wondered if the images would come out better if either the imagee's or the imager's barriers were down.
maybe it takes both?

steve

interactive art-making makes me nervous!

stolen

i don't know about cameras stealing one's soul, but sometimes they do bare it.

have you ever fallen in love even though you know you shouldn't? taking candid photos is like that:
the risks of unhappy subjects and the thrills of forbidden secrets.

Jen

sometimes 10,000 words and a bunch of pictures don't say enough.

and that look, that smile, that moment... a photograph lets you hold it closer.

kids

Children are scary, in a very good way.

dawn and fred

sometimes i see a couple and the way they interact with each other, i want frame them with little hearts - deep red, not pink and fuchsia ones...

white balance

sometimes keeping neutrals neutral require serious adjustments.

friends are like aperture priority in portraiture:
they throw the background out of focus, and make the picture less distracting.

on imaging

I must know you at least a little and love you at least a little - no matter how fleeting - to take a good picture of you.

on love

In being human we all hold a certain knowledge and love of one another.
