Warm-Up

1. What emotions did you feel as you worked your way through these images?

I felt extremely sad, because one of my close friends was diagnosed with cancer a year ago so it brought those feelings bubbling up. These pictures also showed how much she was loved, not just by him, but every one she had encountered.

2. The photographer said this: "These photographs do not define us, but they are us." What do you think about this comment now that you have looked at the photos?
In the beginning of this I believed that he meant that the pictures taken don't say what/who they are, but show how they were/are feeling and what they went through.

3. Do you think you could shoot photos like this if you were in this situation?
I want to say yes, but honestly I have no idea because you want to remember a person the way they were, happy and enjoying life. Not sad and sick, so it shows how much he loves her, and how he just wants to be with her.


4. If you could write Angelo a letter, what would you say to him?
I would tell him I sort of understand what he went through because I'm going through it right now, and how he should enjoy his life and remember his wife and never for get her, and she is watching over him now and forever.
