The Double Portraits series consists of double portraits of single subjects. From the circa 40 frames shot during a half hour session, I select two that reveal minimal differences in the pose and presence of the subjects, but subtle and nonetheless striking changes in their mood and countenance. These photographs are taken using a neutral background and natural light, the changes in which contribute to the changing temperature of each picture. The two pictures, like two frames of the same film shot, gain a cinematic quality. The decisive moment dissolves. (ref. Henri Cartier Bresson). The subjects have moved very slightly, but their thoughts have shifted elsewhere.
