I think the best pictures are often on the edges of any situation, I don't find photographing the situation nearly as interesting as photographing the edges. ↗
I don't see the point of photographing trees or rocks because they're there and anyone can photograph them if they're prepared to hang around and wait for the light. ↗
I just think it's important to be direct and honest with people about why you're photographing them and what you're doing. After all, you are taking some of their soul. ↗
My career was 100% different from what I intended to do. I thought I'd photograph nature and landscapes but I wound up photographing the changing of the times. ↗
I like photographing the people I love, the people I admire, the famous, and especially the infamous. My last infamous subject was the extreme right wing French politician Jean-Marie Le Pen. ↗
I started writing and photographing for different publications and finally ended up being the correspondent in South Asia, for the Geneva-based Journal de Geneve, which at one time used to be one of the best international newspapers in Europe. ↗
