For Kate

Kate,

I really enjoyed the images you showed us on Monday, you are definitely headed in the right direction. I am sure you are familiar with Phillip Toledano, as we have even discussed him in our class, but I think going through his Days With My Father series a few times could spark some ideas. He photographs his father in a somewhat similar way as you recently. I believe Toledano broke away from a traditional, structured way of shooting and pursued digital methods, similar to what you were saying about your turning away from your usual use of medium format.

If you haven't seen this yet, it's rather gut wrenching.

Here's the link, hope this helps:
