Photography is, for me, a spontaneous impulse coming from an ever attentive eye which captures the moment and its eternity.

The most difficult thing for me is a portrait. You have to try and put your camera between the skin of a person and his shirt.

I suddenly understood that photography can fix eternity in a moment. It is the only photo that influenced me. There is such intensity in this image, such spontaneity, such joie de vivre, such miraculousness, that even today it still bowls me over.

I love painting. As far as photography is concerned, I understand nothing.

I believe that, through the act of living, the discovery of oneself is made concurrently with the discovery of the world around us.

The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box.

To photograph: it is to put on the same line of sight the head, the eye and the heart.
