editing, editing, and more editing...

In preparation for "Retratados," my first solo exhibit in Brasil, which will open in late august at the Instituto da Fotografia do Ceará (The State Institute of Photography) I have been editing like a mad woman. Some believe that this is the most important part of the entire photographic process. It is in editing that we decide which of the numerous split seconds we captured to make visible to a wider audience. This image was created by my friend and fellow photographer James Wong, who was visiting me in Brasil for a few weeks.
