I took traditional portraits of nursing home residents and then manipulated each individual to emphasize the awkwardness I feel elderly people naturally possess.
I don’t know who took this but it’s a beautiful portrait. I might be bias because I adore elderly people.
Doing portraits of nursing home residents this Friday, if you can tell, I’m excited.
From a new series. Working with women (white, american, 30-34) documenting their day to day. These two images come from different women and yet I find to be similar.

beginnings of a new project.
To what are the limits of being the photographer? Perspective. Can you still be considered a photographer if you did not take the photo? What if you, as the photographer, had no control over the composing of the photograph except to give someone else the camera? As the photographer, you knew little information about the person with the camera but enough to expect a specific type of imagery? That’s your control, to know a statistical piece of data of the person. Our identity translates into a photograph on it’s own. My perspective as the photographer does not matter here in this context. Only my knowledge that the photographs will be this way over that way and for that to be the only intent.
