When I Take A Picture I Take

Nature Is So Powerful, So Strong. It Takes You To A Place Within Yourself.

My Early Childhood Equipped Me Really Well For My Portrait Work: The Quick Encounter, Where You Are Not Going To Know The Subject For Very Long. These Days I Am Much More Comfortable With The Fifteen Minute Relationship, Than I Am With A Life Long Relationship.

I Wish That All Of Nature's Magnificence, The Emotion Of The Land, The Living Energy Of Place Could Be Photographed.

I Admired The Work Of Photographers Like Beaton, Penn, And Avedon As Much As I Respected The Grittier Photographers Such As Robert Frank. But In The Same Way That I Had To Find My Own Way Of Reportage, I Had To Find My Own Form Of Glamour.

I Am Impressed With What Happens When Someone Stays In The Same Place And You Took The Same Picture Over And Over And It Would Be Different, Every Single Frame.
