People

Pictures of people are everywhere in this multi-social-media world. Your photo says so much about you - it is your way of projecting who you are. For your friends and loved ones it is their way of keeping you in their thoughts. On special occasions it is a historical document. And at work it is a vehicle for your personal or even your corporate brand.

  • Alexander Smith

    "To sit for one's portrait is like being present at one's own creation"

  • Helmut Newton

    "My job as a portrait photographer is to seduce, amuse and entertain"

  • Annie Leibovitz

    "In a portrait, you have room to have a point of view. The image may not be literally what's going on, but it's representative"

  • Richard Avedon

    "A photographic portrait is a picture of someone who knows he is being photographed, and what he does with this knowledge is as much a part of the photograph as what he's wearing or how he looks"

  • Jean Toomer

    "No eyes that have seen beauty ever lose their sight"
