Photographer's Narrative

 

Window lighting has always been sought after in portraiture work. With my love of the painter’s vision of light, I waited for at the time of the picture Staff Sgt. Benjamin Ayivorh to look out at the window to add the human element to my photo. Recently, Ayivorh got his Air Force Commission and is now a second lieutenant.
