10/15/2002 Entry: "getting close enough"
The best documentary photographers are the ones who are able to make themselves invisible. They can fade into the background while continuing to remain incredibly close to their subjects.
Lauren Greenfield is one such photographer. Her newest book, Girl Culture was recently released, and looking at it consumed an hour of my time this morning over iced tea at the bookstore. Her ability to photograph moments of uncertainty, of growing, and to show the strangeness in very familiar scenes is unparalleled.
