“Within the modeling industry, there's no doubt that there are some girls out there that are too thin. But there are also girls who are genetically slim and can eat like a horse.”

“Capturing a beautiful moment in a photo is something I'm very passionate about.”

“For a selfie, it's not about the pose, it's about you. There's a reason why you look great in the picture or you look great in real life, because someone has caught the essence of who you are, and a pose is not you.”

“Everyone gets a pencil as a kid, but it doesn't make them all authors or painters or drawers or anything else.”

“I always wanted to be a zoologist. I'm fascinated with animals. I wanted to be a zookeeper.”

“The life you're leading is the sexiest part of you.”

“Many reality shows have failed because everyone's acting.”

“My wife is a size zero and eats more than I do, and I'm a 6'4", 225 lb. man!”

“I have two little kids, and they both came out completely different, with their own personalities.”

“If I am to judge others, I should be subject to be judged. You make your bed, you must lie in it.”

“I'm much more about the emotion that a photograph provokes out of you and less about how technically brilliant it is.”

“Even though photographers are only shooting the outside, beauty is more about who you are as a person - the life you lead - not your facade.”

“For guys, growing older is fine. Gray hair and wrinkles aren't considered a bad thing.”

“I got a camera when I was nine years old and it wasn't until I was a model that I realized you could be a photographer for a job.”

“I think if more designers designed clothes with a more fuller figure in mind, it would represent women in a greater sense.”

“People think New York is this big city where no one knows each other, but when you live in the Village, it's the opposite.”

“I'm happy to help Crest Whitestrips on their mission to inspire photographers everywhere to capture smile moments and would encourage aspiring photographers to express themselves through their photos.”

“My family are everything to me. They come first in everything I do.”

“Write 'judge of beautiful women' on my tombstone. I'd be quite happy.”
