This is so lovely. It makes me want to light a cig and smudge it across an old print of my face. The part about the communion photo was brutal—that quietly sinister thing a smile becomes when someone else tells you to wear it.

Photographers as clairvoyants is compelling. There’s something about anchoring the present to memory, capturing a moment that doesn’t just hold the past, but drags it forward, reshaped in some way. Do you think that kind of seeing changes the subject too?
