“For me, portrait photography was more about putting my subjects at ease. If I could do that, they would give me something more intimate, something about themselves. I rarely talked about music; instead I focused on the lives of my subjects during our conversations. They would relax and they would forget to pose and would lose their anxiety about being photographed…There were moments when I was indeed intimidated by my subject or was nervous about taking his or her picture. Miles Davis was a perfect example. I had been told that Miles could be really difficult, so I was nervous and didn’t know what to expect when I went to his house. But we got along really well and even went riding together in his red Ferrari. There had been no need to worry.”
– Baron Wolman
