When I'm asked about my work, I try to explain that there is no mystery involved. It is work. But things happen all the time that are unexpected, uncontrolled, unexplainable, even magical. The work prepares you for that moment. Suddenly the clouds roll in and the soft light you longed for appears.

In this day and age of things moving so, so fast, we still long for things to stop, and we as a society love the still image. Every time there is some terrible or great moment, we remember the stills.

Photography's like this baby that needs to be fed all the time. It's always hungry.

I shoot a little bit, maybe two rolls, medium format, which is 20 pictures, and if it's not working, I change the position.

Image
When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them. Anyone I know I photograph.
Annie Leibovitz
Image
If I didn't have my camera to remind me constantly, I am here to do this, I would eventually have slipped away, I think. I would have forgotten my reason to exist.

Photography is not something you retire from.

Image
When you involve people, they come out, you see them, you get to see their sense of humor.

Image
One doesn't stop seeing. One doesn't stop framing. It doesn't turn off and turn on. It's on all the time.

Image
I sometimes find the surface interesting. To say that the mark of a good portrait is whether you get them or get the soul - I don't think this is possible all of the time.

Computer photography won't be photography as we know it. I think photography will always be chemical.

Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.

It's hard to watch something go on and be talking at the same time.

Everyone keeps asking you for pictures, and after a while you get tired of that. I always say, They are in the archives.
