My Women Are Always Victorious.

There Must Be A Certain Look Of Availability In The Women I Photograph. I Think The Woman Who Gives The Appearance Of Being Available Is Sexually Much More Exciting Than A Woman Who's Completely Distant. This Sense Of Availability I Find Erotic.

Look, I'm Not An Intellectual - I Just Take Pictures.

It's That I Don't Like White Paper Backgrounds. A Woman Does Not Live In Front Of White Paper. She Lives On The Street, In A Motor Car, In A Hotel Room.

They Often Ask Me To Shoot For Them. But I Say No. I Think An Old Guy Like Me Ought Not Take Pages Away From Young Photographers Who Need The Exposure.

In The Photographs Themselves There's A Definite Contrast Between The Figures And The Location - I Like That Kind Of California Backyard Look; Clapboard Houses, Staircases Outdoors.
