Within every man and woman a secret is hidden, and as a photographer it is my task to reveal it if I can.

The trouble with photographing beautiful women is that you never get into the dark room until after they've gone.

If there is a single quality that is shared by all great men, it is vanity.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

If you have a block of ballistics gelatin and a high-speed camera, pretty soon somebody gets a gun!

It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.
