Taking the Scenic Route

'Taking the Scenic Route'  was my final major project, which became a book, to complete my degree in professional photography. As with all projects it moved and shaped into something quite natural and organic.

Originally it was a project to challenge myself as a portrait photographer into how much of a subjects identity I could capture.

I was completely inspired by these women's struggle and fight to keep their identity.

Through pain, fear and loss these women are a true inspiration for all women, their vulnerability and strength is bravery in it's rawest form.
