Sunday Morning Photographer: Eschew Cliché

Mark Goldstein | Websites | June 1, 2003 | 0 Comments

This week Mike Johnston looks at photographic cliché...

“The urge to make clichés stems from a desire to make pictures that look like everybody else’s pictures. Why would anybody want to do this? Personally I think it’s because it relieves us from having to rely only on our own judgment when evaluating what we’ve done. Photographers, far more than other kinds of artists, are perpetually insecure about whether what they’ve done is going to be accepted as good.”
