Fine Art Photography Quotes

“What my portraits are made of?
10% reality, 90% my philosophy.”
― Scuro Chiaro

“The remarkable photographs by Craig Varjabedian are not only beautiful but also extremely valuable documents of architecture, culture, and lifestyle . . .”
― Beaumont Newhall, From Adams to Stieglitz: Pioneers of Modern Photography

“With a vintage lens and an eye on regional America, Varjabedian captures both the spirit of place and the sense of enduring culture in the southwest. His imagery comments upon landscape, culture, and how the two influence and imprint each other. Sometimes tinged with religiosity, sometimes humorous, his photographs have an intense clarity that befits his subject: New Mexico.”
― Gerald Peters

“I am a firm believer that digital imaging has already rivaled the chemical process in its ability to make fine prints. An exceptional digital print, on a fine quality paper, can take on all the delicacy of a masterful photogravure. Each is, after all, ink on paper. The unfortunate thing is that skillful digital fine art photography is being created by so few, and today’s artworld is brimming with hastily made, conceptually oriented, digital bric-a-brac.”
― Waswo X. Waswo, India Poems: The Photographs

“As a photographer, I understand the natural curiosity to know the technical side of how
an image was made, but it’s important to remember–cameras and equipment do not make
art–artists do. Allow the images to move you without considering external factors.”
― Tyler Max Redding, Igniting The Darkness: A Collection of Light Painting Art

“This book is dedicated to the ones who know the darkness all too well,
and persevere regardless. The light will always return–just hold on.”
― Tyler Max Redding, Igniting The Darkness: A Collection of Light Painting Art

“The world of fine art photography represents not only the photos themselves, but the original expression of the photographers' perceptions.”
― Eraldo Banovac

“There is so much beauty in this world. I wish people would stop and see it. If we all would see this beauty, there would be no violence and no hurting each other. Because when our hearts are filled with love and care, we would only help and love each other. There would be no war, abuse, poisoning nature, and so much pain. Through my photos, I wish to inspire people to be their full potential, to live their lives to the fullest, to stop and admire the beauty right in front of them or under their feet, to feel, to live, to love. Through my photos, I wish to bring people back to nature. When they feel sand under their feet, feel sunshine on their skin, smell a lovely flower, see a stunning sunset, watch or take care of animals, they will stop poisoning the earth, and destroy what is part of them. Why destroy our own home?” – Ineta Love Wonder, I Love Wonder”

“Within your soul is an inextinguishable light.”
