From a distance she looked like she wasn’t aware of me. I couldn’t get my eyes off of her. Couldn’t lower my camera either. I felt I had to capture this scene. There is something quite captivating about a woman, when she is preening herself in front of a mirror, alone. Only aware of herself. I felt voyeuristic and invasive of her privacy, until she saw me photographing her. It didn’t stop me. I kept on shooting, not wanting to miss documenting the moment. After noticing me, she too went on with her business of preparing for our shooting session. I am not quite sure if now that she was aware of me, self-consciousness had set in. I don’t think it is evident in this triptych.
