There were some advantages to being a woman photographer. I think women have more empathy with the subject.

I didn't want to let women down. One of the stereotypes I see breaking is the idea of aging and older women not being beautiful.

The work which is manipulated looks a little boring to me. I think life is pretty strange anyway. It is wooo, wooo, wooo!

I'm more interested in being good than being famous.

I fell in love with the darkroom, and that was part of being a photographer at the time. The darkroom was unbelievably sexy. I would spend all night in the darkroom.

What I learned from Lennon was something that did stay with me my whole career, which is to be very straightforward. I actually love talking about taking pictures, and I think that helps everyone.
