Robin Bowman - Photographer Trains a 'Complicated' Lens on Teens by Karen Michel
Bowman shot with an older Polaroid camera that gave her both a positive image — that the kids could see — and a negative, for printing later.
She says having that immediate feedback helped gain the teens' trust.
She'd often ask the teens to suggest a location for the shoot, and later to show her which photos they preferred.
The final decisions about the book were hers.
