Arty-Fact: “Some of my models are professionals, some are strangers I meet, some are friends, some are people who approach me. I’ve photographed the women I’ve been married to if that’s what they’ve wanted. But there is always a professional contract in place, Gaining trust so people feel comfortable in front of a camera involves using eye contact, acting confidently and showing you’re interested. It sounds easy but it only works if you are genuine. Once your subject realises you are not there to judge them, they open up to an energy between you, and you can achieve deeper meaning together during the session. You can produce something very honest but it can wake up fears and monsters, so it has to be a partnership.” ~ João de Castro
