"Making books is a very specific kind of activity. It's not really a collection of your best pictures..." — Elliott Erwitt

When I get up in the morning I brush my teeth and go about my business, and if I am going anywhere interesting I take my camera along.

The advantage of taking pictures of the famous is that they get published.

Professionally I've evolved with what's required, but the pictures I do for pleasure haven't changed, except for the cars in the background, the clothing. I haven't changed at all.

Covering a historic event is perfectly legitimate. It's not sneaking into somebody's boudoir... These people belong to history, and not to record that if you have the opportunity would be wrong.
