Photography was a license to go wherever I wanted and to do what I wanted to do.

Lately I've been struck with how I really love what you can't see in a photograph. An actual physical darkness. And it's very thrilling for me to see darkness again.

You see someone on the street, and essentially what you notice about them is the flaw.

If you scrutinize reality closely enough, if in some way you really, really get to it, it becomes fantastic.

The camera is cruel, so I try to be as good as I can to make things even.

It's always seemed to me that photography tends to deal with facts whereas film tends to deal with fiction.

For me, the subject of the picture is always more important than the picture.
