About the Book
I would love to get to know more about my models by taking their photographs. For a brief moment, when I press the shutter, I feel that the model and I inhabit each others world. It is in that precious second that the unique and raw beauty of the model becomes frozen in time, resulting in a captivating portrait. When I take portraits most of the models pose with confidence and pride, others with some shyness, others with some kind of anger and others with some sort of curiosity. Some are at first stiff but when I take my eye off the lens and our eyes meet without anything interfering, something magical happens and they become more relaxed. They smile at me and it is in that moment that I shoot my camera wildly because I can feel that they have finally succumb and I can freeze some seconds of that indescribable connection.
