    Photography for me is a passion, a mixture of science and art that creates magic. If a day goes by without photography, it’s incomplete.

    It fascinates me that there is a variety of feeling about what I do. I’m not a premeditative photographer. I see a picture and I make it. If I had a chance, I’d be out shooting all the time. You don’t have to go looking for pictures. The material is generous. You go out and the pictures are staring at you.
