I'm no snapshot artist. I make very careful choices always, even if I'm using a 35mm camera.

I was a very, very careful printer when I used 8-by-10 film. I probably spent more time on printing than anything else. The more the prints were appreciated, the more time I spent on them.

I always say yes to everything because I always feel that whatever comes my way, life meant for me.

To me... San Francisco is an ideal city, intellectually stimulating and naturally beautiful. The oceans and forests are close enough to refresh the spirit; the architecture is always exciting.

For me, the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity.

Be bold in what you stand for and careful what you fall for.
