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

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.

My lifestyle is bizarre, but the only thing you need to know is where the darkroom is.

When I have sex with someone I forget who I am. For a minute I even forget I'm human. It's the same thing when I'm behind a camera. I forget I exist.

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

Beauty and the devil are the same thing.

When I work, and in my art, I hold hands with God.
