"I'm
a portrait photographer, a hunter/gatherer of forms, faces and
expressions. I am most interested in vulnerability and rare moments of
discontinuity in which defining moments materialize and disintegrate
simultaneously. For me, this is what street photography is all about.
It is crucial that the photographer be improvisational not only on a
technical level, but his or her spontaneity should also extend to the
persuasions necessary to gain the momentary trust of a desired subject."
