A note from the artist:

 

"There is something magical that happens when I wait long enough for someone's true self to shine through their eyes. That second that they forget what they look like and just enjoy themselves. There is something wonderful about catching those fleeting moments when a person just shows who they really are.  I like to take pictures of that."
