Photo Essay Idea

It can be difficult trying to find a balance between school and outside life, and trying to be mentally stable. It takes some people to come to the realization that they just need to take a step back and look at life through a different lense- this may also mean focusing their energy and attention on things that make them mentally sane. I will be photographing a current student, who is taking a gap year, focusing on an activity that she is passionate about- dancing. It will be interesting to see how her typical days layout and the people that she surrounds herself with during this time. I am able to have the opportunity to create a human interest story because I know this person and they are willing to allow me to document them.
