I've ditched words like "shoot" or "capture" because they miss the whole point. Photography isn't about taking - it's about making. When I raise my camera, it's an invitation to co-create something authentic together.
This philosophy has powered every image I've ever made, from street portraits to TED talks. It's not about the perfect shot - it's about the perfect connection. That's where real beauty lives.
