When I started doing my work years ago, I had doubts as to whether the informed consent question was answerable.

I will always admit immediately to what’s obvious, which is that homo sapiens is inherently erotic or sensual from birth.

Any artist that's involved in their work is inevitably going to have a focus in what they do.

We live in an age where anonymity is growing in magnitude like a bomb going off.

But empirically I've come to understand that my photographs really don't do any harm.

I'll go to do a shoot, I'll spend five or six hours at the beach with people, and when people think I'm all out of film, then they really relax and I get my good pictures.

I use an 8 x 10 view camera. All other cameras are just toys.
