One Thousand Portraits: a photography project.

Melissa contacted me through Tumblr - my other one - as a result of images that I had taken and posted of other women who were blogging there. She wanted me to photograph her in an outdoor setting, so we met at Habitat, a Mass Audubon site about 10 minutes from my house. She revealed to me that the images taken that day were to chronicle the beginning of a significant, year-long, personal journey for her, which would culminate in a marathon. She wants me to document her progress as she works towards this goal. I think that’s pretty cool.
