Quote of Note | Tom Ford
“No one works on film anymore. I don’t shoot on film: That’s the only reason I can be a photographer. To be a photographer now, you just have to kind of catch a base image, and then you can rebuild it, rework it, recolor it. Those old guys like [Helmut] Newton and [Richard] Avedon—and [Irving] Penn—were just incredible in the way they could pull off the images they did on film, with no retouching. They truly understood the mechanics of their craft.
For most photographers today—I won’t necessarily mention names—you see a picture of 10 people in a magazine, and none of those people were shot together.
