The Talks interview

Interview0 Comments

Teller gives an interview to The Talks. He discusses how it is difficult to work with his family and why he started taking photos of himself.

I think I got a slightly tired of photographing a lot of celebrities, whether it’s musicians, actors or models. You had to deal with a lot of vanity and I just didn’t want to ask anyone anymore. I thought, “Fuck it, I’m going to photograph myself. I’m not going to look very nice, but no one’s going to tell me what to do.” Also I wanted to feel how it is to be photographed by me!
