Photographers mistake the emotion they feel while taking the photo as a judgment that the photograph is good

[Me book is] called Stock Photographs. It was done at the Fort Worth livestock show and rodeo. I was commissioned to shoot there by the Fort Worth Art Museum for a show. I probably shot a total of fourteen days, give or take.

I generally deal with something happening.

There are things I photograph because I'm interested in those things.

I don't know if all the women in the photographs are beautiful, but I do know that the women are beautiful in the photographs.

I felt that from my end, I should deal with the thing itself, which is the event. I pretty much functioned like the media itself.

In the end, maybe the correct language would be how the fact of putting four edges around a collection of information or facts transforms it. A photograph is not what was photographed, it's something else.
