Silent Mode
On every shoot there is a frame nobody wants: the subject closes their eyes. To me, though, this is the moment of trust and letting their guard down, as evolution taught us not to, until we feel safe. Silent Mode is made of those frames - people whose job is to be looked at, in the split second they stopped performing.
