The spirit world and photography have a pretty natural affection for one another. There’s an entire chapter of the history of photography devoted to spirit portraits, aura photography, and oodles more. We can’t help our fascination with those who aren’t with us physically. Working with cinemagraphs provides a pretty easy and contemporary avenue to create something that can play with our understanding of reality. Whether it be something as simple as a gentle wave in an otherwise static image, or something as elaborate as a disappearing form, I love the theatrical element of elevating otherwise predictable segments of time.
