“I want the public to realize that above all I am an actor, a very professional one who loves every minute of being in front of the camera. But one who becomes very miserable the instant the director shouts, ‘Cut!’”

You believe in God, then you don’t believe anymore and when you have a big problem, you pray anyway.

In love, we have to dare everything if we really love.

I do very well three things: my job, stupidities and children.

I want to devour you with my eyes, and tell you over and over that you’ve never been so beautiful.

I knew everything and received everything. But real happiness, is giving.

I am not a star. I am an actor. I have been fighting for years to make people forget that I am just a pretty boy with a beautiful face. It’s a hard fight, but I will win it.

I’ve been in front of the camera a million times as a musician, and even directed a few music videos. So, I know a lot about spacing, focus, blocking, etcetera. So, acting isn’t totally new for me. Still, I find it fascinating, because you actually get to be another person.

Performing in front of the camera is a different thing, and shooting a whole film is another.

From the beginning, the camera and I were great friends. It loves me, and I love it.

I think I’m better behind the camera than I am in front.

It is important to understand what are you trying to capture with a camera. What you want to use this tool for. It helps to begin to search for and concentrate on thematic photography.

I began working with a family camera. It was called a Kodak Autographic, which was one of those things where you flopped it open and pulled out the bellows. And I’ve been at it ever since – I’ve never stopped.

The camera can capture thought in a way that’s quite surprising and shocking. You can become very simple and minimal in your work and communicate a lot with just a finger or an eyebrow, or a look, or a glance.
