I am a professional photographer because it is the best way I know to earn the money I require to take care of my wife and children.

I've tried a few times to depart from what I know I can do, and I've failed. I've tried to work outside the studio, but it introduces too many variables that I can't control. I'm really quite narrow, you know.

In portrait photography there is something more profound that we seek inside a person, while being painfully aware that a limitation of our medium is that the inside is recordable only insofar as it is apparent on the outside...Very often what lies behind the facade is rare and more wonderful than the subject knows or dares to believe.

Using simple equipment and daylight alone is for me a pleasure and a replenishment.

Sensitive people faced with the prospect of a camera portrait put on a face they think is one they would like to show the world very often what lies behind the facade is rare and more wonderful than the subject knows or dares to believe.

I can get obsessed by anything if i look at it long enough. That's the curse of being a photographer.

The printed page seems to have come to something of a dead end for all of us.
