1.87 - "Needs Work" 

"Tennessee Marriage Bond" is the title of the photo

1 in 3 women in the US experience violence in their marriage. They often feel trapped. Isolation, fear, and a sense of little self worth beyond their partner ties them to the marriage, preventing them from seeking help.

Photo of model was taken on Canon 5D Mark IV in studio with off camera studio lighting. ISO 100, 1/160 @ f/11.

Photoshop used to age and darken the image and blend with a historical Marriage Bond image.

Huh, a very interesting visualization. Is this part of a series? I feel like something is missing to impart the weight of your description vs the image but I can't quite put my finger on it; but I applaud the work all the same!
