Publisher's Description
Are these photos set up? Directed? Snapshots?
What games must a photographer play to gain
access? By any means available—including
deception—Keats cajoles, soothes and manipulates
his subjects into surrendering to the camera.
Kids, pets, families, lovers and stoners all reveal
themselves in work that can hover between candid
snapshot and formal portrait. The means may
include trickery and confidence games; the aim
is truth. With an essay by Rick Moody.
