"Architects live and die by the images that are taken of their work, as these images alone are what most people see.

For every person who visits a private house there are maybe 10.000 who only view it as a photo."

Julius Shulman, Visual Acoustics

 

"Photography is not reality", sovint citava Ezra Stoller. El que significa aquesta frase és que la fotografia representa només una part de la realitat. Stoller s'oposava completament a l'engany fotogràfic, captant escenes irreals, però també s'oposava a representar l'edifici destacant les seves pitjors cares. "No lies, but also no attention paid to anything except what the architect consciously or unconsciously care about most deeply".
