I bumped into David @bareke6 while walking down Bank St. in October, he is one of those people you meet who just seems happy. He has a great style and instantly said yes to a portrait. His image is one of my favs from this series so I have been playing around with it, doing some embroidery and playing around with different ways to display it. 

I love the few fleeting minutes spent together when photographing these Street Portraits, connecting through photography at 1/200 of a second.  I hope you will enjoy these images too and get inspired to say hello to someone you don’t know, #sayhelloottawa!!
