i am an avid pinner. you know that thing that sucks you in and makes you think everyone has these beautiful homes and lives and portfolios…….
well apart from that i just love the collecting.
but a few weeks back i started a personal photography project. its still in its early stages. and it will take over a year to complete. if not longer.
but i think these projects are important. to develop your creativity. to help you feel inspired. to push you.
and today. i found this quote.
from the ever amazing Henri Cartier – Bresson.
“In a portrait, I’m looking for the silence in somebody.”
and it resonated so. well loudly with me.
in a shoot i look for that still moment. the quietness. the calm. the self assurance.
i took this photo today. very similar to another series. it is part of my project.
but it was her silence. her calm. her slightly out of sorts but quiet self.
