When you look at my photos, just look into the eyes of my subjects. The eyes say so much.

For me, the stars are the invisible people on the street that people don't really get a chance to know.

What I strive to do through my work, is to teach compassion. You need to have a lot of it, in this day and time, and it's lacking.

The images of war inspired me to create, to go to different situations and communities, to document the human side of people, to show a side that we don't see.

If God is male, then the male is God.

Money nowadays is money; money brings office; money gains friends; everywhere the poor man is down. [Lat., In pretio pretium nunc est; dat census honores, Census amicitias; pauper ubique jacet.]

Expressed affection is the best of all methods to use when you want to light a glow in someone's heart and to feel it in your own.

Writing is very different to having your photo taken. You are exposing yourself more, not physically but emotionally.

Models come in all sizes and shapes.
