I didn't want to let women down. One of the stereotypes I see breaking is the idea of aging and older women not being beautiful.

When you involve people, they come out, you see them, you get to see their sense of humor.

Nature is so powerful, so strong. It takes you to a place within yourself.

In a portrait, you have room to have a point of view. The image may not be literally what's going on, but it's representative.

I still need the camera because it is the only reason anyone is talking to me.

When you are younger, the camera is like a friend and you can go places and feel like you're with someone, like you have a companion.

Everyone has a point of view. Some people call it style, but what we're really talking about is the guts of a photograph. When you trust your point of view, that's when you start taking pictures.
