“Cancer” digital photography

I shot a series of photos of a friend during the time that my sister was being treated for breast cancer. I wanted to catch the emotions that I saw my sister going through. Black and white photography helped keep the focus on the dark shadows under her eyes and the contrast against her pale face.  

I wanted the viewer be able to feel the drain and exhaustion mentally and physically that the subject was feeling.
