I have always avoided photographing in the studio. A woman does not spend her life sitting or standing in front of a seamless white paper background. Although it makes my life more complicated, I prefer to take my camera out into the street... and places that are out of bounds for photographers have always had a special attraction for me.

Some people's photography is an art. Not mine. Art is a dirty word in photography. All this fine art crap is killing it already.

Technically, I have not changed very much. Ask my assistants. They'll tell you, I am the easiest photographer to work with. I don't have heavy equipment. I work out of one bag.

Look, I'm not an intellectual - I just take pictures.

The desire to discover, the desire to move, to capture the flavor, three concepts that describe the art of photography.

The photographs don't arouse me. All I can think about is the hard work it took to make them.

I was lucky to have my wife as the art director, and it turned out to be quite something - a great success. I'm very proud of it.
