“Making portraits of people is a challenge and a responsibility, to allow the subject to show themselves. In those few seconds that person is unaware of, when they first step in front of me, I try to be completely open to their energy. To edit all their defenses and self-judgment, to see the person they see when they look alone into a mirror. The strengths and weaknesses that have built who they are, and their aspirations for who they want to reveal to someone they trust.”
