My pictures are my eyes. I photograph what I see - and what I want to see.

Work is your life, it’s not a rehearsal. You work 7 days a week so you may as well enjoy those days.

It's a choice - there are two different sorts of photographer: those obsessed with the technicalities and those obsessed by the subject.

A man today has to live with the reality of today. He can no longer live with the reality of 100 years ago. The world's changing so fast. Unless you are prepared to adapt every day, then you have a problem, because the world's not stopping.

The more I photograph women, the less it is about transformation. Women are beautiful. All that really matters is enhancing that.

My favorite type of photography - apart from fashion photography - is journalism, which in a way documents something that exists in a very precise moment, that didnt exist in a moment before and will not exist ever again. This has influenced my work a lot - I usually try to make my images look like they just exist, like no effort was put into it.

I was amazed by this person who, even though she had everything, would go to feed the homeless and visit sick children and Aids victims. It was like a fairy tale. Who was she really? Why did she do this? She was trying to find love. I wanted the world to see her kindness, her humility: I think she realised that would be her way.
