Physical beauty is such a strange thing.

Some of the people that I photographed as sticks became much more voluptuous, much rounder, in some cases dramatically so, and I think they're even more beautiful.

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.

As soon as you forbid something, you make it extraordinarily appealing. You also bring shame in as a phenomenon.

What pedophiles and people who have sexual desires on children lose sight of to a terrible, terrible degree - a devastating degree - is that their victims are real people who will suffer forever whatever abuses are perpetrated on them.

The transactions between me and the people that I photograph are very very collaborative.
