Quick take

“Seeing Mr. Wright’s work in the desert, I decided  I would approach it like sculpture.  That pleased him very much.  I started photographing Taliesin West as sculpture.  What happened — and this may sound arrogant — was I had a great sense of composition.  I say that I have a direct line between my shutter finger and my brain. My brain tells me when I see something and I should take one. That’s my technique.”

From an Alexandra Lange Q&A with architectural photographer Pedro Guerrero, “best known for his 20-year friendship and working relationship with Frank Lloyd Wright,” in The New York Times on April 5, 2012 (answering the question: “How did you learn to photograph architecture?”).
