Just when a uneventful Saturday night was coming to a end. My good friend Chani came over, and there were many photo ops that we needed to take care of :)
I went last week to one of my favorite musician's show in the intimate Mercury Lounge. Trevor Hall is defintly one of the most talented singer-songwriter I have heard! Listen to his music on his Myspace page
The focus of the project was to capture those who are less fortunate. The ones that are disregarded and not looked at. As I asked them to be photographed we engaged in conversation many thanked me for taking there photo. For once they felt that they were part of something and not left unnoticed. The pictures are supposed to evoke feeling for those who are not as fortunate as you or I. And tell you to seize every day and opportunity that life may present you.
(Notice the difference between the photo above and below. Above with his sunglasses he looks confident and aggressive yet below his eyes tell of unfortunate and depth of solitude.)
I had so much fun photographing this family. All the kids are just adorable and full of life. We did many candid and posed shots all over their lovely home..
As I'm sure all has heard there was a snow storm in NY (which actually canceled my show >:l (but is rescheduled for Feb 23rd))
Here are some shots of my co-workers and friends. It was lots of fun!
