The experience of thumbing Snelling's old scrapbooks is rich and cinematic, and the photos have an authenticity that no outside photographer can match. Indeed, this is one of the project's central paradoxes. Germain's photographs of Snelling - artfully composed with shallow depth of field - are wonderful. But they look like, well, fine art photographs. The fact that an old snapshot might communicate more information, or at least convey it more directly, is a problem most photographers would prefer not to think about. But Germain addresses it head-on. He not only throws scrapbooks into the mix, but they're given equal treatment with his own photos. For Germain, this is only one example in a long career of reinterpreting found photographs. A collaborator with Erik Kessels and board member of Useful Photography, Germain finds recontextualizing the vernacular familiar territory. To the extent that it works in this case, it's due to the obvious affection Germain has for Snelling. As much love and care as Charles and Betty have put into their scrapbooks, Germain has put into his own photos.
