What drove me and kept me going over the decades? If I had to use a single word, it would be 'curiosity.

It doesn't matter if you use a box camera or you use a Leica; the important thing is what motivates you when you are photographing.

If a photographer cares about the people before the lens and is compassionate, much is given. It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument.

I think if I ever get satisfied, I’ll have to stop. It’s the frustration that drives you.

What you need to be a good photographer is an overwhelming curiosity and a good digestion.

A studio session ... provides the greatest chance for control. Even though there is total freedom, I still dislike studio photography and the contrived images that usually stem from this genre.

I can't hold a camera anymore.
