Peter van Agtmael
USA. San Antonia, Texas. 2014. Bobby Henline and his son. Henline served four tours in Iraq, and over 40% of his body was burned when his Humvee was hit by an IED. He was the only survivor of the five-person crew. His son is the spitting image of Bobby at his age. This photo is based on a picture made by Bobby that he posted on Instagram. It’s challenging to photograph someone with disfiguring injuries in a way that is both revealing and respectful. Bobby gets his share of gawking stares, yet he’s eager to share his story. Basing the image off an image he had endorsed seemed like a good solution. But did I need to use the flash? His images often seek to minimize the disfigurement, while the flash fills in every detail and crevice.
