When you are on assignment, film is the least expensive thing in a very practical sense. Your time, the person's time, turns out to be the most valuable thing.

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

The camera makes you forget you're there. It's not like you are hiding but you forget, you are just looking so much.

When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them. Anyone I know I photograph.

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

When I started working for Rolling Stone, I became very interested in journalism and thought maybe that's what I was doing, but it wasn't.

There's an idea that it's hard to be a woman artist. People assume that women have fewer opportunities, less power. But it's not any harder to be a woman artist than to be a male artist. We all take what we are given and use the parts of ourselves that feed the work. We make our way. Photographers, men and women, are particularly lucky. Photography lets you find yourself. It is a passport to people and places and to possibilities.
