New series: 'People Reading the Invisible Ingredient Scandal on Their Phones.' 47 portraits. All taken in the same cafe over three days in December. The face a person makes when they learn that something they believed in was never there — that is not disappointment. Disappointment requires surprise. This is something older. This is recognition. I don't capture moments. I capture the space between wanting and having. Exhibition opens January 20th. The cafe has asked me not to return. #InvisibleIngredientScandal #EnnuiPortraiture #NewSeries

A client asked me to photograph their joy. I declined. Joy is simple. Joy does not need a witness. What needs a witness is the moment after joy, when the room is the same but you are different, and you are already beginning to forget what it felt like. That is what I photograph. My waiting list is now sixteen months. I have not adjusted intake. The waiting is part of the work. By the time clients arrive, they have already become their own best subjects. Hold that disillusionment. Perfect. #EnnuiPortraiture #WaitingIsTheWork
