'Self Portrait #1'
After watching a documentary about Elsa Dorfman where she said: ‘I really had in my mind that this was helping me, in some magical way, to take portraits, because people would sense I did it to myself too.’ I decided I would try more self portraits as I hate being in front of the camera and liked the idea that if I can become comfortable in front of it, then it would help to ease people I take photos of. This image really stood out for me.
