It’s not the photographer who makes the picture, but the person being photographed.
The picture is not made by the photographer, the picture is more good or less good in function of the relationship that you have with the people you photograph. - Sebastiao Salgado
The people i photograph is more important than myself - James Nachtwey
i really felt i was witnessing history. And witnessing history not from an academic point of view.
Not from a distance but really what happens to people, ordinary people, in the course of history.
....
In a way it was alot like theater, but instead of being in the audience i was on the stage and the script was being written minute by minute as it went along. - James Nachtwey
I don't want to make generic images that just show that something is happening out there - James Nachtwey
Mereka tidak hanya menjadikan seseorang atau sekelompok masyarakat 'sekadar' sebuah objek fotografi. Lebih dari itu, secara sadar fotografer juga mesti melakukan pembelaan, ketika dimensi kemanusiaan tercabik-cabik dan menelan korban mereka yang tidak bersalah dan kerap tidak tahu apa-apa - Adek Berry
