When I get up in the morning I brush my teeth and go about my business, and if I am going anywhere interesting I take my camera along.

Be sure to take the lens cap off before photographing.

The advice I would give to any photographer - young, old or in-between - is to explore anything visual because this is, after all, how you express your artistry. Look at paintings, movies, drawings, sculptures - look at anything visual and try to integrate that into your visual sense. After that, go out and take pictures and keep on taking pictures!

Do what the client wants, not what you want.

Balance of light is the problem, not the amount. Balance between shadows and highlights determines where the emphasis goes in the picture...make sure the major light in a picture falls at right angles to the camera.

The advantage of taking pictures of the famous is that they get published.

I am serious about not being serious.
