For this project, I wanted to show the Quinceanera, like a sweet sixteen celebration in America only this is sweet fifteen for girls, in my culture and the strong ties to religious belief. I did this by wearing my own Quincearnera dress we had bought when I was fifteen as if it was the day of the celebration, which starts with going to a private mass at the church with family and friends. I'm not fifteen anymore but I know if I had a daughter it would be important to pass on this tradition and faith. Since it is a pretty old tradition the Collodion look helps support that feeling of this important event going on for a while throughout generations.
