the exposure project / Jessica Bruah

I found a photographer who made Lake Delton the center of her MFA thesis at SVA on a blog that also happened to mention me today. The Exposure project looks to be a pretty great little collective of contemporary up-and-coming photographers and Jessica Bruah's work shows what happened when Mother Nature decides there won't be a lake at the Dells for one summer. I went to the lake last July to shoot and made a few images vowing I would return to take more. I never did. I'm glad Jessica did. The resulting images document a once-in-a-lifetime event that no one in our lifetime will perhaps get to experience again.
