"Photographer Craig Varjabedian is working with indigenous people around
New Mexico to celebrate their past and their culture with the Native
Light Photo Collaboration Project.

When you look at the portraits, however, you don't see just the subject.
You also get a glimpse of the bond they share with the photographer.
After all, both of them have equal control of the end result. One takes
care of what's behind the frame — operating the camera — and the other
is responsible for everything within it — choosing clothing, regalia,
and other objects that are important to them.

This collaboration is precisely what allows the image to truly represent
the person being in front of the lens."

Via Muse, who wrote "These are gorgeous."

Share and enjoy,
