In honor of Women’s History Month, WIRED asked four women photographers to talk about the hardest photo they ever took.
I made this photo last year during the Puerto Rican Day parade when my roommates invited me out to partake in the day's activities. I decided to bring my camera and photograph my encounters, resulting in some of my favorite images to date. While walking, we encountered this man, in all his Puerto Rican pride, blasting salsa from his speakers. His presence was so energetic and welcoming that I had to stop him and take his photograph.
Assuming that being challenged is a generative process for you, how do you hope to be challenged as a photographer in the future? The communication between a photographer and their subject is both challenging and incredibly important. I want to develop this more by photographing individuals who aren’t used to being in front of a camera.
This photograph captures Rozette Rago and her best friends in the living room where they were isolating during the Covid-19 pandemic.WIRED: Tell us about the photograph you chose.This is a photograph of me and my best friends that I worked on for a project last year about finding love in a time of hate. When the photo was taken, we had all been working from home and isolating for over a year. Three of my friends lived in the same house, and our lives began to revolve around their living room.
