Why?
Why?
Why would I do this?
Why would I put my heart on the line?
You might think I am crazy.
You might think I don’t care.
You might think I shouldn’t do this.
But I did……
I have been asked why lately by a lot of people. It’s always about the same thing. Its about this project. It usually starts simply by what is it? Then quickly ends in Why?
Why did I photograph these people?
Here’s the story, If I told earlier I wouldn’t have known the truth myself. I started with a black and white project. I saw it in a magazine. If another photographer could capture the grace and beauty of an elderly person why couldn’t I.
Looking back it is clear. It didn’t start this spring. This projected started with my Grandmother…. Click hear to read the rest of the story.
Today I finished up my project at Fountain View. This one was the hardest. The memory care unit is where the patients with severe dementia and Alzheimer’s reside. The saddest part for me was the three residents we couldn’t photograph.
I warn you.. You might need Kleenex.
