I hate being away, but I understand that for me, that's where the work, the stories are.

I see myself as a recorder of history, sort of a visual historian.

The fact that I have a little ten-megapixel camera with me all the time, is way better than having the greatest camera in the world sitting at home on a desk instead of on my shoulder.

The satisfaction comes from working next to 500 photographers and coming away with something different.

The greatest photographs are motivated by human feeling.

It's a given your family will be tired of being photographed, but don't give up. In another couple of decades, those are the pictures you will be glad to have.

Shooting film is not for everybody, but if you're crazy enough it might be for you.
