Close to the Eye
Quiet portraits that carry presence, not only features.
A portrait does not begin with the face alone, but with the distance between the photographer and the person. When that distance becomes calm, the features appear as part of a larger story.
This story is inspired by faces that do not need heavy direction. A look, a garment, a hand, or a small silence is enough to bring the photograph close to memory.
