'Collecting photography has helped me overcome my shyness in having my own portrait taken. I was so excited when Irving Penn photographed me. It was such an honor for me to even be in the same studio where he's taken so many great photographs. He's one of the photographers I've collected in depth - his fashion work, his portraits, flowers, and still lifes.'
- Elton John
