“A creative project is a moving target. You never end up where you start.”

“Light is everything in photographs and has to be considered in all situations.”

“I have a vision of life, and I try to find equivalents for it in the form of photographs.”

“I've been criticised for pretty, smiley photographs, but at least someone is happy! In my mind, I am always giving the image to the sitter.”
