It’s OK to Play with Fire
Reflect on your deepest emotions in the warm light of an open flame, capturing a poignant moment in time.
It’s OK to Play with Fire.
It’s OK to look backwards.
It’s OK to be curious even when it’s difficult.
For this photo series you choose an emotion -- love, fear, grief, hate, joy, and so on; and I’ll create a personalized meditation
on how that emotion has been felt in your life,
and capture it with my camera.
The shoot is flamelit
and the many flames illuminate
and pull shadows across the subject.
The constant flickering of the the flames creates dramatic, and unique lighting for every moment of the shoot.
The lighting is symbolic of the ephemeralness of emotions.
As I guide you through your relationship to this emotion,
how it’s changed throughout your life,
and how the emotion deepens your understanding of yourself and your perception of others,
I’ll capture moments of this relfection using my camera.
The result will be evocative photographs that reveal the depths of the subject, and memories of the kind of photo shoot you’ve never had before, or will have again.
