In college, I was planning to be a writer. And I was planning to be a photographer.
Unfortunately, my first photo professor said we had to buy film. I was too broke to buy any. I had just enough money every day to eat a can of tuna.
One can.
So I dropped photography, and I became a writer.
But for years, I’ve been taking pictures at news events and doing street photography.
So now, here is the first gallery of picture work.
I prefer taking photos of people. I take public photos, not just because public photos are a legally protected form of speech, but also because public areas are where the biggest life goes on.
I love life.
I love people.
I love strangers, situations, and stories.
So here I present to you this pre-apocalypse project, a decade-in-the-making.
It’s a celebration of the people of Las Vegas.
I mock no one. I admire them for doing what they want to do with their lives. I admire their heart, courage, and joie de vivre.
The only thing I didn’t create was the music. I curated it from Epidemic Sound:
