Nowadays shots are created in post-production, on computers. It's not really photography.

I respect newspapers, but the reality is that magazine 'photojournalism' is finished. They want illustrations, Photoshopped pictures of movie stars.

There are some people who become best friends with everyone they photograph. There are people that I really like and admire and respect, but in a way I think it's better to keep a distance. I think you get better pictures of people that you don't know very well.

I wanted to travel from the beginning. As a kid, I used to dream about airplanes, before I ever flew in one.
