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.

You should never reveal your true age.

What I have tried to do is involve the people I was photographing... if they were willing to give, I was willing to photograph.

Themes recur again and again in my work.

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.

What do you hang on the walls of your mind?

What has changed is that when I photographed, most people that I photographed didn't have the right of refusal on their work. It would take a Marilyn Monroe at her height to be able to dictate that.
