The people of Paris


























These images were taken on the back of everything, I had been learning about the people I met, what's incredible is that everyday of your life you pass total strangers, people who are completely anonymous yet who if you spoke to for two or three minutes instead of just simply walking by could open you up to  a whole new world of adventures and ideas if only given the time. These photos are supposed to allow us to ponder the unknown, asking others to take time to think about the hidden identity and the hidden stories of strangers who pass us by. By hiding the face of the subject the audience is not drawn directly to the features of the"person" but instead asks the viewer to look deeper into the surroundings that might make up part of who this person is.

Taken on 35mm colour.
