"Very easy to work with, I truly believe in leaving my ego at the door (preferably on the street), so we can get to the heart of the matter and that is creating art."
~ Antonio Cassone, 2003
"I see beauty...and not just the 'outside' kind. Work with me and I will bring that beauty I see in you OUT and together we can show the world a 'different' point of view..." - Antonio Cassone, 2005 on the inception of the Photography by Cassone website.
