I never plan anything in an analytical way before I shoot, but when I look back there seems to be kind of a primary color palette.

When I'm shooting in other cities, I'm just trying to make it look like California.

I can't even imagine what it is like to make a movie that lasts two hours.

I never thought about the green, but LA has a lot of greenery.

The eyes sparked a lot of things for me, it could be somebody remembering something they had witnessed or heard about, or it could be the person in the photograph that was experiencing a tragedy or it could also be the spectator looking on from a safe distance.

I think the worst reaction that I could get from someone to my photos is some sort of mediocre, middle-range reaction where they really get nothing from it, and they want to move on to the next thing. [I'd rather they be] horrified, pissed off at me, extremely disgusted at how bad of an artist I am.

With photography, I like to leave a lot of the story, even to myself.
