Do you feel perverse? Why the props? Why do you appear in the photos? Why are people naked? The photo series ‘That Little Distance’ raises many questions for viewers. Jamie answers the questions the subjects themselves posed.

What follows are the comments by several people who sat with me in front of my camera for a photographic project I made in 2013 called That Little Distance. Following each comment, I asked the people to pose a question(s) related to either the series generally or their image specifically. To understand the basis of the work and the questions that follow, I recommend that people look at the whole series first on my site That Little Distance . The images are all long exposure portraits, 15-20 seconds each, all made in the same room and all illuminated by natural daylight passing through a large, north-facing window.
