There are many forms of photography. I consider myself simply a recorder of that which I find of interest around me. I personally have no desire to create or stage direct ideas.

Life as it unfolds in front of the camera is full of so much complexity, wonder and surprise that I find it unnecessary to create new realities. There is more pleasure, for me, in things as-they-are.

...one day I was speculating on how I would like to look back on life and I decided I wanted to feel that I was a photographer rather than a teacher. As simple as that.

I'm a photographer, obviously. My chosen tool for understanding life, and communicating the results of this search to others, is the camera.

For me photography is an excuse to be nosy about things I want to know about.

You are not a photographer because you are interested in photography.
