In 2011 I photographed 6 Israeli teenage girls, all 15 year old at the time. In 2016 I went back and photographed them again to document what has changed. The most interesting change wasn't the physical one but the emotional.
It was incredible to see how differently they presented themselves to me and to the camera: all grew more confident and were less willing to expose themselves. It was clear they were now more aware of who they are and what part of themselves they wanted to show. This is the first time I'm sharing this project.

I love the concept of time lapse in any subject. What happens in the intervening years is what we spend so much time thinking and worrying about and we always want to be the ones where, in several years from now, our story (or own personal story) is narrated positively.
