Review :
"At its best, portrait photography is a kind of conversation between cameraman and subject, culminating in a snapshot of the instant when, as Parry puts it, "you see an expression or you feel something from that person and you capture it. That's the decisive moment." It's a bait-and-catch game at which Parry excels." - New York"
