I'm not a serious photographer like many of my contemporaries. That is to say, I am serious about not being serious.

Photography is simply a function of noticing things.

Photoshop is useful in many ways but must NEVER be used for the altering of photographs. My assistants and my agency do whatever Photoshop work for me that may be required as it is too complicated for my brain.

The work I care about is terribly simple. I observe. I try to entertain. But above all I want my pictures to be emotional. Little else interests me in photography.

I appreciate simplicity, true beauty that lasts over time, and a little wit and eclecticism that make life more fun.

I don't really have a favorite camera. I use a Leica and Canon a lot. It depends, especially professionally, on the requirements. But my carry-around camera is a Leica.
