21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Dear Elena
The photo was captured in mid blur. A friend of mine had recently died her hair and got a new jacket, and found herself wanting a portrait that reflected the change she was feeling both internally and externally. We began shooting and it wasn't until I watched her play with her hair and shake her head around that I told her to continue shaking her head till she began laughing. It was right before the laughter that I found this small moment of calm and composure, her face looking as if it is about to take a breath in.
