Paper Airplanes by Elena Zakharova
My son and daughter are in the photo. And like a real older brother, he teaches his younger sister how to fly paper airplanes. The photo was taken in the park, at sunset. The photo turned out to be very warm, emotional and calm at the same time. This is one of the first photos I took with a professional camera.
Little Lady by Elena Zakharova
A little lady's smile can do a lot. She can melt the heart of a stern and bearded father, and bring him back to childhood. The time spent with children is priceless. Priceless not because dads are often busy, but because they know how to really love! And even an ordinary walk in the park can turn into a wonderful journey and be remembered for a long time.
The photo was taken as part of a thesis on photography. In the photo, my daughter and a family friend, who played the roles of father and daughter during the filming.
Vidigal - Rio de Janeiro by Juarez MalavazziVidigal – Rio de Janeiro by Juarez Malavazzi
I was in Rio de Janeiro working as a model for an American brand. The photographer was Ellen Von Unwerth. When we arrived in the Vidigal community, we were greeted by these children and the photo is a perfect snapshot of the joy that reigns, despite all the violence around these communities, which are run by drug traffickers.
