Everyone keeps asking you for pictures, and after a while you get tired of that. I always say, They are in the archives.

Everyone has a point of view. Some people call it style, but what we're really talking about is the guts of a photograph. When you trust your point of view, that's when you start taking pictures.

I wish that all of nature's magnificence, the emotion of the land, the living energy of place could be photographed.

There must be a reason why photographers are not very good at verbal communication. I think we get lazy.

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

I admired the work of photographers like Beaton, Penn, and Avedon as much as I respected the grittier photographers such as Robert Frank. But in the same way that I had to find my own way of reportage, I had to find my own form of glamour.

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