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.

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.

A virulent, aggressive minority has decided that Americans don’t know themselves what it is they should see, and need to be protected by people who are wiser than they are, even if they are only a tiny sliver of the population.

It's no small irony that the government inevitably and invariably ends up promoting precisely that which they would most like to repress.

There are photographs that I don’t take now, that I previously would have taken without any thought at all as to any misinterpretations.

I don't photograph any two people who are remotely the same.

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