For me, pictures provide a means of holding, intensely, a moment of communication between one human and another.

I need to say to you. There are things in your life that only you will see, stories that only you will hear. If you don’t tell them or write them down, if you don’t make the picture, these things will not be seen, these things will not be heard.

The authentic thing is to follow your heart, your instincts, your emotions. If you located yourself in an idea, your life would be lived very sadly.

The challenge of photography is to show the thing photographed so that our feelings are awakened and hidden aspects are revealed to us

We tremble at the feelings we experience as our sense of wholeness is reorganized by what we see.

I am pessimistic about a picture's power to be the emissary of just one thing. What I hope is that the picture says, "Here I am, this is what I am like," and the person seeing the picture says in return, 'You know a lot but you don't know half of what I know.'

I was going round the world searching for an interesting place, when I realized that the place that I was in was already interesting.
