I was a Catholic boy, I went to church every Sunday. A church has a certain magic and mystery for a child. It still shows in how I arrange things. It's always little altars.

I don't think that there's that much difference between a photograph of a fist up someone's ass and a photograph of carnations in a bowl.

With photography, you zero in; you put a lot of energy into short moments, and then you go on to the next thing.

I stand naked when I draw. God holds my hand and we sing together.

People don't have time to wait for somebody to paint their portraits anymore. The money is in photography.

When I’m behind a camera I forget I exist.

I always thought I was good. That's why it was so frustrating when other people didn't agree.
