Everyone has photos. Almost no one has a portrait.

Why does almost no one have a portrait?

Because looking at someone takes time.

One session

Thirty-seven photographs.

A mother, crouching in the park, holds her little daughter across her lap; both are laughing, each looking a different way

One stays.

Because photographs keep a face.Stories keep a life.And voices keep a presence.

Three profiles in black and white, one behind another: father, mother and daughter

Legacy gathers a family's portraits, voices, letters and archive into one book. It is a new project, still in development.

A portrait is a commission: a conversation, an unhurried session — in the studio or outdoors — and a selection of photographs edited one by one. A commission starts at €450.
