In regards to Hickey's Essay, I would characterize most of my lastest work as feminine. I don't agree with his manner of labeling pictures but intimacy is an important part of my photos and that is one of his facets for feminine work. Seeking those beautiful (in the photo above, composing) moments that can make a subject look gentle, emotional or fragile. I feel like there is a lot of pictures that dehumanize their subjects. I like my audience to be able to relate to my work and consider it tangible evidence for the universality of the human condition, regardless of background.
