Good portraits are fascinating since they can reveal their personality through their eyes, their stance, their clothes, and sometimes their settings. I'm a big people watcher so therefore I love Rineke Dijkstra's style of shooting. Her choice of portraits of children and teenagers are exceptionally well done, showing that modesty and teenager attitude in their way of standing and connecting with the lens.

I'm as much excited and scared of shooting portraits of strangers with the huge 4x5 at the State Fair. Let's pray that we load the film correctly and pray we don't shoot blanks.
