This group of portraits are part of my project titled Grownups. I created the pictures of friends and acquaintances in 2015 and 2016 throughout places in New England where we live. They reflect my insecurities and questions about adulthood as we move through our thirties. They convey the vulnerability and inner life of my peers. I accept these people as they are in the moment I photograph them and I make their portraits as a way to express my care for them.
