Interview with Steve McCurry

“You still have to work and struggle. Effort and reward—they’re all intertwined. You can’t really look at struggle as necessarily a negative thing. Or work. The word ‘work’ can seem kind of like drudgery, but you can’t look at it like that.”
—Steve McCurry (GUP Magazine)

Interview with Megan M. Garr

"That’s part of the object of it, it should move through hands. As many hands as possible."
—Megan M. Garr (KNiK)

Interview with Scot Sothern

"I have a certain amount of guilt for what I've done with these pictures and the way I've thrown 'em around and splattered these poor women in front of everybody, and sometimes I think I'm wrong and then I sometimes think I'm right, and that's what I live with, you know?"
—Scot Sothern (GUP Magazine)

Interview with Christopher Anderson

"You may agree or disagree with my perspective but you'll know if I'm being honest about my perspective, and I think that is the thing that we can recognize in an image."
—Christopher Anderson (GUP Magazine)

Interview with Antoine d’Agata

"If I die tomorrow, I won’t learn anything, I won’t feel anything. If I want to stay alive, I have to protect myself so, the way I see it, the only choice we have as human beings is to put ourselves in the condition to keep trying as much as we can."
—Antoine d'Agata (GUP Magazine)
