“Paolo Sollazzo is a poet… when I met him, the first words out of his mouth was a poem… I did not understand the poem, for I speak no italian and Paolo speaks no english… but by week’s end we communicated with each other perfectly… I have had many students over the years, but never anyone quite like Paolo… at first, I thought he would perhaps cause a problem with the class, for Paolo never stops talking and takes up a lot of “space”... he also never stops shooting… I mean NEVER… Paolo’s non-stop chatter and equally non-stop shooting style ended up bonding the class rather than causing a problem… Paolo is 50+ years old….he has an administrative job of some kind-in Rome… he has no clue whatsoever about how to work his camera….and I did not try to teach him… I could see that his “peter pan” personality and his instinctive use of light and moment and composition should not be messed with… I decided to just let him go… any tinkering with what he was doing would have “ruined” him… he was already where I try to get the rest of my class to go… he was free… he was totally himself… he was not self conscious… I figured he could shoot randomly and freestyle this week and he could learn l about “photography” some other time…”
