What is it about the portrait that can make one feel such strong emotion? Sometimes a portrait will border on disturbing, yet draw us back in, again and again.

His latest book ‘Attachments’ depicts some of those attachments that he has formed with his subjects. If you would like to explore some more of his world, you can visit here.
