A photograph is just a little, teeny-weeny, small piece of life. I feel like I see so much more than what I can actually get.

My hope is that we continue to nurture the places that we love, but that we also look outside our immediate worlds.

Coming tight was boring to me, just the face... it didn't have enough information.

In this day and age of things moving so, so fast, we still long for things to stop, and we as a society love the still image. Every time there is some terrible or great moment, we remember the stills.

It's hard to watch something go on and be talking at the same time.

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 subjects felt more comfortable if they played the role than if they had to be themselves.
