Watch out people, the skinny little white girl’s got a gun.

I’ve been a big fan of Amamak for a long time but the top photo has got to be my all time favorite of theirs. What’s awesome about this picture is that it’s a picture that you can take individually, you don’t need the second pic, you don’t need to know who Aviva is, it’s perfect as a standalone. And what I love about this picture most isn’t Ama’s shirt, the soft glow lighting, or the perfect polaroid corruption on the side- though I do really like all those things. No, What really makes this picture for me is her expression. It doesn’t just say she isn’t afraid of you, she’s annoyed, incredulous even.It’s like the start of a good crime novel, she was having a nice breakfast when some half dressed idiot in desperate need of shower and shave comes staggering out of the woods and starts trespassing and getting the dogs worked up. Turns out he’s an undercover cop who got in too deep with the crime lords of the city and woke up in the river with some broken bones and a bad headache. Nobody thought there was anybody living out here but turns out she breeds German Shepherds in the mountains. The cop really likes German Shepherds. Shenanigans ensue, she assists in the crime solving, gets the boy, etc.
Or maybe that’s just me.
Probably just me.
This is amazing. Can you please narrate all our shoots?
