My portraits are more about me than they are about the people I photograph.
There's nothing more extraordinary than reality.
Photography is the only language that can be understood anywhere in the world.
The things you don’t show can say more than the things that are made visible.
From an interview with Erwin at: https://talking-pictures.net.au/2020/12/12/erwin-olaf-a-hesitant-beauty/
You have to be ready for luck.
If you do see the competior in the viewfiender you've missed the picture.
If the ball isn't in the picture you haven't got a picture.
I am a perfectionist. When I take a picture...it's gotta be good
I like your motto: One picture is worth 1,000 denials.
To White House News Photographers Assn 18 May 83
One picture is worth a thousand words.
