She arrived at our studio with her husband, family, and a life support machine.
After the shoot, we rushed the prints, and visited her in the hospital. She looked so happy when she saw the photographs, but it would be the last time I saw her in person.
A few weeks later, she passed on.
The people we photograph are not objects.
They are not lifeless shapes and colours,
they are not things we paste onto a background.
They are living, breathing people, people with feelings.
When we take someone’s photograph,
we are capturing a moment in life,
a proof of existence,
a reminder that she is beautiful.
Treasure every minute, every second of your time with people,
because there is life in front of you.
