Benjamin the storyteller

Benjamin

You get such a sense of accomplishment when you´re responsible by a photograph such as this one that if you spent 30 days without taking another one you would feel the top of this page would be well represented. You get the feeling that no matter how many photos you take, you’ll hardly be able to portray someone like that again. So, I told Benjamin “Let me just first take the picture and I’ll tell you what it is for in a second”. And when he answered me “you don’t have to tell me anything”, I told him:
– But I want to [I want you to know. I want you to want this picture. I want you to see what I´m seeing right now. And then…I want you to feel proud of it. Just like I want all the people that I shoot to feel proud when they look at their own pictures. And that´s why I want you to ignore me and keep on doing what you are doing. So you can see what I´m seeing right now. Because, if you see what I´m seeing, you’ll definitely be a (even) happier man]

Costanza





(I’m even embarrassed to confess this, but this sequence was left forgotten since that gloomy afternoon when it was taken in December)
