I never want people to be repulsed with my pictures; I always want to attract people.

My biggest advice would be to take the pictures you want to take. Don’t think about the marketplace, what sells or what an editor might say. And don’t think about style. It’s all bullshit and surface stuff. Style happens.

I still go to church occasionally. I went the other day and found peace.

I like the consistency of having people in my life for a long time.

I believe Michael [Jackson] in a sense is an American martyr. Martyrs are persecuted and Michael was persecuted. Michael was innocent and martyrs are innocent. If you go on YouTube and watch interviews with Michael, you don't see a crack in the facade. There's this purity and this innocence that continued [throughout his life].

You just do what you love, and then a style happens later on.

The adornment of the body is a human need.
