I've never liked the word 'celebrity.' I like to photograph people who are good at what they do.

When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them. Anyone I know I photograph.

I fight to take a good photograph every single time.

I realized I couldn't be a journalist because I like to take a side, to have an opinion and a point a view; I liked to step across the imaginary boundary of the objective view that the journalist is supposed to have and be involved.

I went to Yosemite as an homage to Ansel Adams. I could never be Ansel Adams, but to know that's there for us - there's so much for us in this country.

I'm more interested in being good than being famous.
