"My children and their children have been, my closest thought, but from the first days of dawning indivduality I have longed unceasingly to make pictures of people... to make pictures that are biographies to bring out in each photograph the essential personality."
Gertrude Kasebier
"There is nothing more interesting to me than capturing the human spirit. I love finding moments that happen naturally and are not prompted. I really want you to be you and not who I want you to be.
This is where the beauty is, this is where the blessing comes. It is more than just a photo. It is a brief moment when my subject and I have made a real connection.
This is the kind of photography I love to be a part of."
Felicia Ortiz Ruperto
