My job as a portrait photographer is to seduce, amuse and entertain.

I have mixed feelings about those sorts of things. When I see it done by interesting young people, I think it's very valid. But when established photographers, people in their forties, copy me and get a lot of money, well, I find that to be very stupid.

I was lucky to have my wife as the art director, and it turned out to be quite something - a great success. I'm very proud of it.

I used to hate doing color. I hated transparency film. The way I did color was by not wanting to know what kind of film was in my camera.
