Delhi | The Family Living in the Tree

I was walking through the chaotic streets and met a family living in a tree on a tiny strip of grass in the middle of a busy intersection.

I was on my way to a big slum to spend the day shooting and spent a few minutes with theses people, beautiful and generous and shy.

Sometimes I have to go through a lot of film to get an idea.

I’ll show up in a city or meet with a model, and I need to warm up with exposing some frames, trying ideas out, taking chances, bringing out the old tricks. It would be amazing to show up and to have fully formed, fantastic ideas, all ready to go, from frame 1.
