Triggerer


This is the photo that made me want to work on the subject of uniforms.

For me, she is very sexy and when I first saw her dressed in her working clothes I wondered how it was possible such a metamorphosis. The woman with the hottest guitar-like shape was almost hidden under the extra-sized clothes.

So, I asked her to pose for me wearing her working uniform to try to bring out her sex appeal.

The results weren't what I expected, though. However, I got a couple of good shots. The first of them shows a very fragile and sensitive version of her, a photo more according to her beauty. The other one is the one I've posted today. Instead of sexy she looks quite confrontational, as if she was ready for a fight. It even makes you feel a bit scared of her.

Whatever the accuracy of the photos, the idea of bringing back the identity of those people who feel it is hidden under their uniform made it owns space in my mind. There it grew enough to make me think of it as a project. Now I'm about to start it and I feel excited. Time will say if it was worth doing it.
