Quiet Presence

A portrait can be quiet and still hold tension. This series uses restrained surroundings, soft light and a presence that needs no explanation.

Quiet Presence asks how little a portrait really needs. Posture, gaze, distance and light take the place of grand gestures. Moving between an editorial image and a personal portrait, the series leaves deliberate space in each frame. Small changes become more powerful: a turning shoulder, a glance beyond the edge, a brief movement.
