Photography seeks to capture moments in time
''Typically I wouldn't let anybody take photos''
Mary-Ann loved opening another side of herself for her glamour photoshoot with me.
- a timestamped reminder of where we were or who we were with. It serves as a permanent, immutable showcase of our lives. Snapshots weave themselves into collections or albums that serve as the fabric of our lives. Many are kept private but always backstop our waning memories as children grow or the landscape changes. For some, sharing or even appreciating a photo can be difficult - privacy aside the simple fact is that we often are unhappy with how we look in our photos. As a photographer, my goal is to use the power of this medium to showcase my subject in a way that exemplifies the qualities that make them truly gorgeous. I look to highlight their personality, their confidence, their spirit. Their true beauty. The things that we all see when we get to know someone, but the quick photo from a phone isn’t equipped to capture.
Through this project I’ve tried to reinforce beauty, inside and out.
Meet Mary-Ann - strong, courageous mother of two young men.
She’s a mother, aunt, sister and friend to so many people and without exception they see her strength, drive and loving nature.
