I check fashion magazines when I'm published in them to make sure that my work looks good, and then I kind of put it aside.

My work is never just fashion, landscape, or portraiture; it's always kind of an odd mixture of everything. I like muddling it together.

I love working with both the old and the super young. Each offers different things that I can learn from and build off.

I began photographing around 14; my mother gave me a camera, it's actually the one I still use for creating most of my work. My career has evolved from literally figuring out how to formally structure a photograph, to going through graduate school and trying to formally structure my thoughts. A sort of gradual learning, then unlearning.
