Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. 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'm more interested in being good than being famous.

I don't try to overintellectua lize my concepts of people. In fact, the ideas I have, if you talk about them, they seem extremely corny and it's only in their execution that people can enjoy them...It's something I've learned to trust: The stupider it is, the better it looks.

The pictures of my family were designed to be on a family wall, they were supposed to be together. It was supposed to copy my mother's wall in her house.

I fight to take a good photograph every single time.

I'm pretty used to people not liking having their picture taken. I mean, if you do like to have your picture taken, I worry about you.
