She was scared.
I saw that in her eyes. Firstly, she looked at me, and then at the aquarium. I said: "Calm down, it is just water". However, she was still terrified. I spent hours and hours teaching her how to touch water, how to enjoy it on your skin. "Remember, before you were born, you had lived for months in water. Now, sit down on your knees and try to recall your pre-childhood."
That is how we were fighting fears with photographing.
