They were without clothes before I got there, and they were without clothes when I left.

Virtually always I get my best pictures when everybody thinks the shoot's done.

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

The images I like best are parts of series that I've started, in some cases, with the pregnancies of the mothers of the children in question, and I continue that series right on through the birth of children to the child that resulted from that first pregnancy.

There's no particular evidence that any of the lower mammals or any of the other animals have any interest in aesthetics at all. But Homo sapiens does, always has and always will.

If somebody's pointing a trembling finger at your pants and saying you shouldn't be doing that, follow that finger back, go up the arm and look at the head that's behind it, because there's almost always something fairly woolly in there.

The kids really enjoy what they do. I check with them constantly to make sure that they're really happy to be there.
