beach thinking people
I'll go to do a shoot, I'll spend five or six hours at the beach with people, and when people think I'm all out of film, then they really relax and I get my good pictures.
two people photograph
I don't photograph any two people who are remotely the same.
people needs minorities
A virulent, aggressive minority has decided that Americans don't know themselves what it is they should see, and need to be protected by people who are wiser than they are, even if they are only a tiny sliver of the population.
artist focus involved
Any artist that's involved in their work is inevitably going to have a focus in what they do.
beautiful thinking different
Different members of different cultures will think that some things are beautiful.
mother children pregnancy
The images I like best are parts of series that I've started, in some cases, with the pregnancies of the mothers of the children in question, and I continue that series right on through the birth of children to the child that resulted from that first pregnancy.
animal doe mammals
There's no particular evidence that any of the lower mammals or any of the other animals have any interest in aesthetics at all. But Homo sapiens does, always has and always will.
people photograph transactions
The transactions between me and the people that I photograph are very, very collaborative.
art get-back
I'd rather get back to making art than talk about it.
