I Found A Way Of Working Which

If The Photographer Is Interested In The People In Front Of His Lens, And If He Is Compassionate, It's Already A Lot. The Instrument Is Not The Camera But The Photographer.

If You Are Careful With People, They Will Offer You Part Of Themselves. That Is The Big Secret.

I Look For A Sense Of Reality With Everything I Did. I Didn't Work In A Studio, I Didn't Light Anything. I Found A Way Of Working Which Pleased Me Because I Didn't Have To Frighten People With Heavy Equipment. It Was That Little Black Box And Me And £5 Worth Of Film In My Pocket Or Maybe It Was Only £2 In Those Days.

Recording Sessions Were Stimulating To Photograph, Because Everything Was In Motion: The Subject, The Musicians, The Technicians And The Photographer. You Needed Fast Reflexes To Keep Up With Moving Targets, And Sensitivity And Skill To Get The Pictures While Keeping Out Of The Performers' Eyeline So As Not To Break Their Concentration.

I Came To Photography By Accident.
