“I grew up playing sports and slowly kind of got into fashion when I was in Junior High, you know, I mean it was a great way to attract girls; it certainly set me apart from all the other kids in a Midwest junior high. Growing up looking at magazines from seventh grade until, you know, now, without specifically trying to, I think you just pick up a visual dialogue, a visual understanding and so it wasn’t really the technical aspect of photography, but how it communicated to me, how it created certain curiosities to a kid in the Midwest who would look at Vogue or look at GQ and think, ‘Wow, that is really a different world.’”
