"A hugely impressive multi-media documentary in words, pictures and sound...a living, vibrant, open-ended piece of reportage"

I ended up attending parts of two Roma weddings today in Istanbul, which was fascinating. The language barrier was probably a blessing though when I learned this bride just turned 15.
Amazing photo. I was just talking to someone about how difficult it is to take pictures of people when there’s such an incredible language/culture barrier. This photograph seems to reach out across that and tells the view exactly how she’s feeling. Well done! So glad I found your blog.
Great use of the pink/white background, and the sorrowful expression makes it stand out – though is unlikely to get you many wedding gigs ;-)
