Kit Hedman's statement: I crave walking into new place, photographing a fresh face.  I would go anywhere just to wake up my eye.  The whole sidewalk assemblage, someone rolling a tire or sitting in a cafe sipping champagne--it gives me pangs to leave life unrecorded.   A seven year old, crossing the street, breaking into a little dance opens my heart's wafer as easily as great writing.  Photography's just another way to tell a story.  Inventive and imaginative, witty or dark, as long as it's captivating. In place of gimmicks photography requires love of wild, unpredictable feelings and sensations. And a camera--the only reliable witness to my soul's thirst.
