New Portraits from the Road

•

Here is a batch of new portraits that I shot on a road trip across the Western United States in the summer of 2011. I used the almighty power of the internet to meet many of these subjects. A few of them were strangers that I spotted and approached on the side of the road. The locations are a mixture of the peoples homes, places of employment, and interesting spots that I found by driving in circles.

This is very much a work in progress and I'm looking forward to heading back on the road and expanding this project in 2012!
