Reflection - Image #3
David Texeira was the subject of my character reflection portrait. I caught him in a moment's whim, with the intention of capturing a spontaneous glance at the camera. While we were photographing studio shots against blank backdrops, I wanted to include what was behind the scenes." David, simply sitting with his cell phone, showcases youth attachment to technological devices. Where people can be at a disconnect from others, despite being in the same room or space. I was far away from Dave, zooming in with a macro lens to keep the viewer at a distance while maintaining a sense of intimacy in his eye contact with the camera. It mirrors all I wanted to evoke.
