HIGHLIGHTS

▶ “If you’re just trying to get the same shot as everybody else, if you stand in front of the Eiffel Tower and shoot right down there, you’re going to get the same shot as everybody else, but that doesn’t mean you have to do that.”

▶ “ You’re not supposed to shoot homeless people. These are disadvantaged people. They’re down on their luck unless you’re doing a documentary to show the plight of the awful conditions and how we help them.  Don’t do it. They’re not a photographic subject for you.”
