2023’s Faces from the Road: Alabama, Oklahoma, Los Angeles, Vienna, and Biarritz.
Faces of My Year
On a good day, I read, take notes, walk (now run), and hang out with my wife and talk to assorted strangers. If I’m lucky, I get to ask those strangers if they’ll allow me to take their photos with my phone. I love the connection we feel for that brief moment. I love capturing their coolness, their beauty, their confidence. These are some of my favorite photos I took this year in Madrid, London, Louisville, Istanbul, and beyond.
Libraries and Faces
The other day, an old friend asked me what I liked most about being back in the U.S. Without skipping a beat I said: the libraries and the faces. No matter where I am, I make an effort to engage with the people around me. Much more often than not, it pays off in smiles and surprises. It also helps me balance out my days, which are generally spent buried in books that I find in, um, libraries. As I head back to Europe for a spell, I thought I’d post a few photos of some of the kind folks I’ve met while walking the streets of Los Angeles.
