L’Autre / Luc Delahaye
One of the series of photographs which inspired Moa Karlberg’s project “Watching Me Watch You”.
Photographing people as they see themselves. I photographed through a mirror while the subjects looked at their own reflection - meaning they saw the exact same image (inverted, obviously) that my camera did. I asked them to try to forget that I was there with my camera, while they looked at their own faces.

More from my uni project (more coming up…)

Edited the first 9 photos from my uni project on the train home today. If you’re a new follower, here’s the basic outline of my project:

Test shoot.
Shot through a mirror, with a hole left in the backing material but covered in glass. The subject is looking at their own reflection as the photograph is taken.
I forgot to run this through a high pass filter and it shows, but my laptop is being too slow to do that now.
Having your photo taken while you are looking at yourself is actually really unnerving, even when you’re taking the photo yourself.
I have no problem taking self-portraits, as my Flickr photostream shows. But when you are staring back at your own face it is actually really different!

Literally a 10-15 minute shoot. My arms are going to KILL me unless I can find a way to rig this mirror to a tripod - because my current technique is to lift it at arms-length to eye level. POWER BICEPS! Camera on a tripod and shutter released via remote.

Moa’s portraits are pure candid.
She’s able to take photos of people looking into mirrors without them knowing. How? Two way mirrors.
