"I know I'm lucky, as I love everything about what I do. . . getting the perfect light, the decisive moment, the best angle, and especially the wonderful people I get to meet. There's an old saying, 'Shoot what you like and you'll love what you shoot.' I do and I hope to see you in the perfect light."
