At times photographers dwell on getting the right composition, and camera settings and capturing an intimate moment. Sometimes we end up interrupting someone's private life by joining them through the lens, without their consent. I personally encountered a situation where I was taking photos of construction workers for a project, and they were bewildered as to why I would take photos of them some even felt uncomfortable and asked me not to take their photos. Strangers could see a person with a camera held up at them, without their assent, as a weapon to unmask them. This led me to ponder that we often don't care about the subject's privacy. We're so engrossed in portraying the subject that the process of knowing the person before capturing their lives fades away. To tell a story about someone through images, one needs to show who the story is about. To defeat that purpose, I decided to take portraits without actually taking portraits, concealing identity. While being engrossed in obscuring faces, I didn't comprehend how this impulse was associated with my timidity.
