Ramsay Taplin, A Lonely Career (People and Portrait 2019)

Having watched my housemate and close friend craft her solo stage show over many months, she asked me to come take some photos on the preview night. I couldn't help but notice how lonely performing is. The photos start with her warming up waiting for crowds, singing to them, and then receiving their feedback at the end which, to me, all seems unbearably exposing.
