Mother
|
Nov 07, 2020

When you have your own kid, it suddenly makes you more aware of how your parents treated you and educated you. Your relationships with your partner, your uncles, your mother all change; you're more conscious of where you came from, of where your roots are. I find that very interesting.

Grandfather
|
Nov 07, 2020

In Bavaria, many homes have a cosy room which is all wood and is filled with special things. My grandfather had such a room, and he made the panels on the walls himself; each one told a story.

I Am
|
Nov 07, 2020

I try and photograph people as they are. I do not want to hide anything. I want to bring across a personality, a humanity. It is not a case of model A or model B against a white background. I am interested in the person.

Like
|
Nov 07, 2020

I like people with conviction, who are in control of themselves. I'm not interested in working with a designer who hires a creative director.

Birthday
|
Nov 07, 2020

For my 50th birthday, my cousin Helmut gave me the most profound, beautiful, and striking present. He made books out of my dad's slide photographs, which were stored and forgotten. Looking at those books made me cry.

Nov 07, 2020

What's the point of shorts if they're not short?

Look
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't understand longer shorts. I don't think they look good on anyone.

Hate
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't care what other people think. I hate conforming, that you have to wear this to a business meeting or that to a dinner. I've never worked that way.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

A few brands have asked me to design shorts for them. I'm not sure about that. I don't want to have them as a mass product, and suddenly everybody is walking around in them.

Fly
|
Nov 07, 2020

I cycle whenever possible around London. But I travel first class when I need to fly.

Football
|
Nov 07, 2020

I like physical exercise. I cycle, run, and play tennis and football with my son.

Late
|
Nov 07, 2020

It was really inspiring to be in West London in the late 1980s and early 1990s, especially in Mark Lebon's Crunch Studios, where I met people like Ray Petri, Neneh Cherry, Judy Blame, Nick and Barry Kamen, Zoe Bedeaux, and Venetia Scott.

Lost
|
Nov 07, 2020

I would be lost without my family.

Nov 07, 2020

I like Ryan McGinley's work.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

Most fashion photography is done by gay people finding women sexy - which is sort of not sexy at all, at least to a heterosexual man.

Eating
|
Nov 07, 2020

I just really like women, and I like men, and I like children, and I like eating, and I like doing everything.

Problem
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have a Mercedes. I wear a Rolex watch. I have no problem with the selling of things.

Crazy
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm interested in the person I photograph. The world is so beautiful as it is; there's so much going on, which is sort of interesting. It's just so crazy, so why do I have to put some retouching on it? It's just pointless to me.

Mobile
|
Nov 07, 2020

Back in 2000, I didn't have a mobile phone.

Negative
|
Nov 07, 2020

You have a negative, and you can have an influence whether you want to have it more contrasty or less contrasty; you can pre-flash the photo paper. You can make it warmer or colder, lighter, darker. This is all a way of manipulating the image in a normal way, not changing the pixels.

Good
|
Nov 07, 2020

I just want to do everything as good as I possibly can.

Look
|
Nov 07, 2020

I never work with a screen. Other photographers have this black thing around, and they go back and look at it. I'd rather spend the time with the subject, photographing or discussing or talking, than staring at this thing. I'd rather look at what's going on.

Nov 07, 2020

I think it's really important to not be afraid of failure and to push yourself to try things and jump in the cold water.

My Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think the range of my life shows in my work.

Doing
|
Nov 07, 2020

One day, I'll be photographing Kate Moss in Paris, then I'll be on Stephanie Seymour's ranch with her hundred horses wondering what exactly it is I'm doing there.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

When I became a father, all that stuff rose up again from the back of my mind. I suddenly realised how uninvolved my father had been in my life.

Family
|
Nov 07, 2020

My father never really encouraged me or even took an interest after I walked away from the family business. No one did except my mother and my grandfather. To be truthful, I cannot remember one meaningful conversation I had with my father.

Boring
|
Nov 07, 2020

Nudity is no big deal as a German. It's all rather normal and boring.

Childhood
|
Nov 07, 2020

My childhood was very beautiful in some ways and very disturbing in others.

Mother
|
Nov 07, 2020

Normally, whenever I try to photograph my mother, she is extremely impatient and will only stand for a minute and insists on knowing exactly what I'm doing.

Matter
|
Nov 07, 2020

I often photograph something as if the subject matter was realistic, but it is actually a fantasy.

Lights
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm often in Venice in November and December, when it's foggy and wintry, and the decorations in the shops and the lights in the churches make the place feel both Christmassy and melancholic.

Go
|
Nov 07, 2020

When I was a child, I always went to my grandmother's house in Nuremberg for Christmas. My uncle would leave the room, saying he needed the toilet, and then he would reappear dressed as Santa Claus. I was really scared - I'd have to go and hide behind an armchair.

Nov 07, 2020

I would never ask somebody to do something where I felt that it's not right or it puts someone in an uncomfortable position.

Moral
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think my moral ground is very much intact.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

If I do a portrait, I know what they can take. If somebody's a sweet, shy person, the photographs will be sweet and shy. Of course, you ask people to do something which they might not have done before, but that's the journey, the fun element.

Guilt
|
Nov 07, 2020

When you're a kid, what you learn in school about being German has a sort of heaviness about it, and you have a sort of guilt with you.

Nobody
|
Nov 07, 2020

I couldn't identify with the images in 'Elle' or 'Vogue' or 'Harper's Bazaar.' Nobody in the world we're walking around in actually looks like that.

Care
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't care about fashion at all.

Fashion
|
Nov 07, 2020

You can't get away from fashion. The whole beauty thing is everywhere. It's just really weird.

Moment
|
Nov 07, 2020

There was a stage in my career when I started to have problems with the vanity aspect of the subject. I got frustrated and bored with it. Then I thought, actually, how does it feel to be photographed? That's when I started to photograph myself. That was an incredibly important moment, and it opened up my work tremendously.

Like
|
Nov 07, 2020

I like friendship.

Not Interested
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm not interested in running around from one shoot to another.

Being
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't really like being controlled by anyone.

Go
|
Nov 07, 2020

I go, wherever there is my interest, where my heart and feeling take me.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

Family is a major part of my life.

I Am
|
Nov 07, 2020

I am someone who takes pleasure in exploring the full scale of the medium photography. I am a photographer.

Never
|
Nov 07, 2020

I never really think of anyone as models, even the models.

Looking
|
Nov 07, 2020

I want adventure in my life. I want to do things I haven't done before. These Hollywood people are so careful of their image and looking right, but there's a wildness when I come into the photographs. I just want to wade through rivers, climb mountains.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think my strength is to act instinctively, really quickly, on what I believe, what I see in this person. A proper portrait. I wouldn't dream of doing something inappropriate for that person. I guess I make the person comfortable around me.

Nov 07, 2020

I take it very seriously, the photographic craft.

Nov 07, 2020

It's important to spend time with your work. That's when you see it, when you have a feeling.

Important
|
Nov 07, 2020

For me, cinema is very important. I grew up with television; then, as a teenager, you discover cinema.

Eyes
|
Nov 07, 2020

I see through my eyes; the camera is just a machine to record it for me.

Football
|
Nov 07, 2020

I had no visual imagination as a child. I liked playing football. That was it.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

I wasn't aware it could make me rich or famous. I just wanted to take pictures.
