I hate good taste. It's the worst thing that can happen to a creative person.

What I find interesting is working in a society with certain taboos and fashion photography is about that kind of society. To have taboos, then to get around them that is interesting.

I used to hate doing color. I hated transparency film. The way I did color was by not wanting to know what kind of film was in my camera.

It's that I don't like white paper backgrounds. A woman does not live in front of white paper. She lives on the street, in a motor car, in a hotel room.

Genius and taste don't go together.

My job as a portrait photographer is to seduce, amuse and entertain.

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