It's a weird combination that makes a great picture. It's a complete mystery to me.

I always say that photography's closest cousin is poetry because of the way it sparks your imagination and leaves gaps for the viewer to fill in.

For me, the act of photography is all about discovery and finding new things.

The people that I photographed allowed me to photograph them because they didn't want to be alone, and the truth is I didn't want to be alone making the pictures.

For me, photography is as much about the way I respond to the subject as it is about the subject itself.

I've never been comfortable photographing people I know, myself included. I guess I prefer the mystery of strangers.

Nobody really wants to be alone. People need people.
