I find it some of the hardest photography and the most challenging photography I've ever done. It's a real challenge to work with the natural features and the natural light.

There's something incredibly sexy about sand and sweat and dunes photographed like women's backs.

I was the official wedding photographer at one of my best friends' weddings. Fortunately she was one of the most easygoing brides ever so she made it easy for me.

I saw a photograph of a wedding conducted by Reverend Moon of the Unification Church. I wanted to understand this event and the only way to understand it was to write about it.

Of all liars the most arrogant are biographers: those who would have us believe having surveyed a few boxes full of letters diaries bank statements and photographs that they can play at the recording angel and tell the whole truth about another human life.

Photography is truth. The cinema is truth twenty-four times per second.

I photographed rocks and trees and tide pools and nudes and all that stuff for years and years. Until 20 years ago when I found that I could do it in the studio and never have to travel.

I don't take any photographs. I travel a lot by myself and I feel weird taking photos on my own.

There are so many things I want to do. Like I want to get an artist a musician a photographer and a bunch of dancers that I know and just travel across Africa and just film it and just see what happens. Do and learn as much as I possibly can. Luckily I have a lot more time.

The photograph reverses the purpose of travel which until now had been to encounter the strange and unfamiliar.

Travel becomes a strategy for accumulating photographs.

To take a photograph is to participate in another person's mortality vulnerability mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it all photographs testify to time's relentless melt.

Visual ideas combined with technology combined with personal interpretation equals photography. Each must hold it's own if it doesn't the thing collapses.

As an avid photographer I also took advantage of the latest technology in photography - digital photography - to post photos on my website on a daily basis.

In my mind I needed a symbol of today's technology and I realized that what I wanted to photograph was the Space Shuttle. And so that's where Places of Power came into being.

I support any procedure that allows photographers to express themselves whether that involves color black and white platinum palladium and digital technology.

The most important thing you learn as a sports photographer is anticipation - not where the action is taking place but where it's going to take place. Not where the subject is now but where they're going to be.
