"I believe very strongly in something we could call the photographic phenomena. We decide that we are going to tell a story, we prepare then we integrate ourselves with the people we are going to photograph......What really interests me most in the photographic phenomena isn't choosing the most powerful pictures on a contact sheet but rather the phenomena itself, the integration with people in photographs. It's their acceptance to be photographed, to give an image of themselves, it's almost a gift you receive."
