Nature Is So Powerful, So Strong. It

There Is A Myth That The Portrait Photographer Is Supposed To Make The Subject Relax, And That's The Real Person. But I'm Interested In Whatever Is Going On. And I'm Not That Comfortable Myself.

A Photograph Is Just A Tiny Slice Of A Subject. A Piece Of Them In A Moment. It Seems Presumptuous To Think You Can Get More Than That.

I Think Self-portraits Are Very Difficult. I’ve Always Seen Mine As Straightforward, Very Stripped Down, Hair Pulled Back. No Shirt. Whatever Light Happened To Be Available. I’d Want It To Be Very Graphic – About Darkness And Light. No One Else Should Be There, But I’m Scared To Do It By Myself. I’ve Been Thinking About It For A Long Time. The Whole Idea Of A Self-portrait Is Strange. I’m So Strongly Linked To How I See Through The Camera That To Get To The Other Side Of It Would Be Difficult. It Would Be As If I Were Taking A Photograph In The Dark.

What I Learned From Lennon Was Something That Did Stay With Me My Whole Career, Which Is To Be Very Straightforward. I Actually Love Talking About Taking Pictures, And I Think That Helps Everyone.

What I Am Interested In Now Is The Landscape. Pictures Without People. I Wouldn't Be Surprised If Eventually There Are No People In My Pictures. It Is So Emotional.
