"The very nature of his work requires that he be the uninvited guest, the man behind the potted palm, forced to swoop down on his subjects so that they could be caught offguard"- from Introduction by Bruce Jay Friedman

His works to capture photographs of un-expectant celebrities; through this he manages to maintain charm and allure in his images, bringing out the best in celebrities rather than the worst.
