Thank you for the link Tina.

In the video about the photography:
(in the context of our previous discussions about editorializing)
I found it interesting that the photographer said something to the effect
that she could have portrayed the subject as a victim;
but thought "no, I want to portray her as a beautiful woman."
The photographer certainly thought about the messages
that she could send with her photography;
and chose the one she preferred;
over other possibilities.
