Actually, when I first started dabbling in photography, I was still working for my parents as a salesman.

Even though I didn't get a business degree, I enjoyed learning about economics.

Today a lot of things are so celebrity-oriented; it's only because it's celebrity and the photograph is lost. To me it's important to have an image that is a photograph first, not about necessarily who that person is.

Coming from California and growing up where I did, I've always had a fondness for and innate sensitivity to light, texture, and warmth.

Each time I did assignments or editorials, I realized that I wanted to do something more. I saw that it wasn't just about the clothes.

And what excites me most is the type of public, the fact that the Parisian people have a broader cultural understanding than many Americans do.
