Book excerpt: Neal Schlosburg photographs spontaneous emotions in a formal portrait setting, using a series of photos to create a story... Our disquieting stories and unsettling feelings are often difficult to express to those closest to us. We're afraid of being judged, thought of as less than. Many grow up believing we don't burden another with our difficulties. That's the way I was raised. Internalizing, ignoring, and pretending emotions don't exist affects our daily lives. They impact our temperaments, viewpoints, and relationships with others. In my life, it made me feel disconnected, especially from those closest to me. "My Pictures Tells A Story" is based on a simple premise. This quote by Jill Bolte Taylor says it best. "Just like children, emotions heal when they are heard and validated."Through my images, my storytellers show how safe sharing feelings can be, and how safe sharing your emotions can be. The goal of "My Picture Tells A Story" was to vividly show that sharing emotions with people you trust is safe, healthy, and healing. I created space for my storytellers to share their stories without interruption, and most importantly, without judgment. Like life, their stories are a pallet of emotions. "My Picture Tells A Story", twenty stories by twenty people, a unique portrait study in human emotions...."Professionals have a story to tell with their images. It's rare that any of their work is created from a vacuum. Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, Richard Avedon, Mary Ellen Mark, and so many more, all leave an indelible personal stamp of themselves within each photograph they create. Having this ability to capture an image that comes from their heart, as much as it does from their mind, is a gift. My dear friend Neal Schlosburg has this gift. ...Neal is a "true" photographer; he is as much as part of the photo as the subjects are. The work Neal creates is as much for himself, as it is for his subjects and us viewers. The portraits on the pages of this book underscores this symbiotic relationship Neal has with his art."
