In every artist there is poetry. In every human being there is the poetic element. We know, we feel, we believe.

Style has no formula, but it has a secret key. It is the extension of your personality. The summation of this indefinable net of your feeling, knowledge and experience. Take colour as a totality of relations within a framecolour is joy. One does not think joy. One is carried by it.

All I wanted was to connect my moods with those of Paris. Beauty pains and when it pained most, I shot.

Color is joy. One does not think joy. One is carried by it.

Every work of art has its necessity; find out your very own. Ask yourself if you would do it if nobody would ever see it, if you would never be compensated for it, if nobody ever wanted it. If you come to a clear ‘yes’ in spite of it, then go ahead and don’t doubt it anymore.

I love to read theories without ever using them when working... The paradoxical fact in the aesthetic is that theories are also true in reverse.

You see what you think, you see what you feel, you are what you see If with the camera you can make others see it - that is photography.
