The idea of a subtle shift in reality, thus creating a false narrative interests me. I gathered three photographs from my parents wedding collection and removed them from the pictures using Photoshop. The removal of my parents in each photo isn’t blatant and my aim was to entice the viewer in to study each photograph and get a strange sense of something missing.
