I just want to be written about as a normal artist.

I think that it was a great advantage to go into photography not knowing much about it. Not thinking. I think one of the problems with many photographers today is that they never see for themselves, but just like everybody else.

I'm not photographing anything naked these days. I haven't been concentrating on bodies recently.

I don't like that particular word 'shocking.' I'm looking for the unexpected. I'm looking for things I've never seen before … I was in a position to take those pictures. I felt an obligation to do them.

Sell the public flowers... things that they can hang on their walls without being uptight.

I am selfish, but that's an attribute that all artists possess.

People have done pornographic pictures forever, but most of the people who involve themselves in explicit sexuality aren't really artists.
