Often I have struggled for days to get the image of the photograph to overlap the spirit I see. It is an awesome responsibility, and a lonely one.

Light is my inspiration, my paint and brush. It is as vital as the model herself. Profoundly significant, it caresses the essential superlative curves and lines. Light I acknowledge as the energy upon which all life on this planet depends.

You have to follow your instinct all the time. Otherwise you don't make it.

There is nothing unimportant in the universe.

I never question what to do, it tells me what to do. The photographs make themselves with my help.

I expect photographs to find me. I never thought of looking for them. I instinctively put them there. My intellect had nothing to do with it.

I never look for a photograph. The photograph finds me and says, I'm here! and I say, Yes, I see you. I hear you.
