To talk about photos rather than making them seems idiotic to me. It's as though I went on and on about a woman I adored instead of making love to her.

I take photographs with love, so I try to make them art objects. But I make them for myself first and foremost - that is important.

I have never taken a photograph without one thought in my head to amuse myself.

I think just about everything has been tackled, but it may be that things will be done again, only better and differently.

Photography is something you learn to love very quickly. I know that many, many things are going to ask me to have their pictures taken and I will take them all.

The golden rule is work fast. As for framing, composition, focus-this is no time to start asking yourself questions: you just have to trust your intuition and the sharpness of your reflexes.
