Reviews for Moment by Moment
Loengard's...subjects, whether famous or unknown, are treated with the same careful, thoughtful eye. 'A great photographer has the knack of putting a great picture in front of his camera, ' (Loengard once said). It's a mantra that's visible in this collection. The book is beautifully done...The design is excellent and complements the immediacy and strong presence of the photographs.
