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

I love having the photograph in my hand. I love looking at the photograph. I love looking at a box of photographs. I just love the still photograph.

There is a myth that the portrait photographer is supposed to make the subject relax, and that's the real person. But I'm interested in whatever is going on. And I'm not that comfortable myself.

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.

...I gave up on being a journalist - I thought having a point of view was more important than being objective.

One doesn't stop seeing. One doesn't stop framing. It doesn't turn off and turn on. It's on all the time.

At my Rolling Stones' tour, the camera was a protection. I used it in a Zen way.
