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.

There are still so many places on our planet that remain unexplored. I'd love to one day peel back the mystery and understand them.

Most people, especially successful people, are hard-working. They want to participate. They want to do things well.

My lens of choice was always the 35 mm. It was more environmental. You can't come in closer with the 35 mm.

The work which is manipulated looks a little boring to me. I think life is pretty strange anyway. It is wooo, wooo, wooo!

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

My early childhood equipped me really well for my portrait work: The quick encounter, where you are not going to know the subject for very long. These days I am much more comfortable with the fifteen minute relationship, than I am with a life long relationship.
