02.10.2017 - Mental Depression in Pilipino-American communities. I shot and edited all these photos posted here. These pictures were shot to portray mental illness, primarily mental depression, in Filipino-American communities. My focus of my shots were to bring forward the essence surrounding most 2nd generation Filipino-Americans growing up with parents who do not treat mental illness as a legitimate ill-condition, and it becomes difficult to communicate with parents about this until it has already occurred. On a side-note, I really find something beautiful in capturing photos in dim-lit settings. I do have more to write about the pictures and my progress, but I'm saving that for my writing portion of the assignment.
