I create other worlds, magical never-never lands where the camera is my weapon and the battles I fight are with the elements. i stretch the laws of the mind and displace people from their realities to capture a side of them they didn’t even know they had. Photography has the ability to freeze people in this time and space—no matter what happens after that moment, it cannot change—they are exactly how i want them to be. ↗

The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box. ↗

The most difficult thing for me is a portrait. You have to try and put your camera between the skin of a person and his shirt. ↗

I'm dying to get back in front of the cameras. I miss it like crazy. ↗

I learned quickly at Columbia that the only eye that mattered was the one on the camera. ↗

Some people are directors and I think they should stay behind the camera. ↗
