I am impressed with what happens when someone stays in the same place and you took the same picture over and over and it would be different, every single frame.

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

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

A lot can be told from what happens in between the main moments.

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

When I'm asked about my work, I try to explain that there is no mystery involved. It is work. But things happen all the time that are unexpected, uncontrolled, unexplainable, even magical. The work prepares you for that moment. Suddenly the clouds roll in and the soft light you longed for appears.

People buy ideas, they don't buy photographs.
