About Zeb Andrews / Zeb Andrews  

I believe:
Photography is magical. The ability to capture our vision physically so that others can share in it, amazes me constantly.

There is always a picture to be taken, it is just a matter of seeing it.

Enjoy what you do and you will begin to love it, love it and
everything else will follow.

Hard work, passion and dedication will trump talent every time.

Photographs should never be taken for granted, by the time your grandchildren pull them from a box in the attic in 50 years, they will be priceless.

The best photography does not impress, it inspires.

Titles should be irrelevant. Amatuer. Professional. Master. If you use a camera, then you are a photographer, as simple as that.

Cameras may be remarkable instruments, but it is the people behind them that create.

Whether it is film or digital, 35mm or large format, color or black and white, they are merely different ways of doing the same thing, making photographs.

It is never enough to assume, no matter how frequently photographed a place is by a particular photographer, or a group of them, that every perspective has been explored, every vision realized, and every scene recorded fully. The best photography is not discovered in this manner at all. The best photography is born from the realization that there is always a new perspective to be found, a new vision to be realized, and a new way to record even the most familiar of scenes.

"The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera."

"One should really use the camera as though tomorrow you'd be stricken blind."

both quotes by Dorothea Lange

"Make visible, what without you, might perhaps never have been seen." Robert Bresson.

"The pictures are there, and you just take them." Robert Capa
