#sayhelloottawa Street Portraits Book Published!!

The #sayhelloottawa Street Portraits portfolio is now published on the Apple Book store!!!  

The portfolio includes a rationale for the project, development photos, video and text along with other content. The book is a free download of course, click here to get it.

Thanks to all who took the time to stop and be photographed I loved the few fleeting minutes we spent together when photographing these Street Portraits, connecting through photography at 1/200 of a second.  I hope you will enjoy the book and get inspired to say hello to someone you don’t know. 

More Street Portraits are coming soon, I can not wait to get back on the street after putting this together!!

 

Aidan Street Portraits - #sayhelloottawa

Aidan

Walking by @aidan.jones and his friends talking on the corner and something about him caught my eye. Not sure if it was his awesome jacket or his board but after he was done talking I asked if I could take his portrait. 

This image was shot on the side of the Medical Arts building at 180 Metcalfe St., built in 1928 the architect W.E. Noffke also designed the Champagne Bath and the Central Post Office buildings here in town. Love the Art Deco look of the building, Ottawa architecture like its citizens are always full of surprises!!

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.

Alina Street Portraits - #sayhelloottawa

Alina

This image was on a roll that I shot back in October but did not scan until recently. I passed @alinapants while on my way to buy film and lamented that I did not have any film to take her portrait. But as luck would have it right after I bought some and loaded my camera she walked by again. She has such a cool post-punk style to her which worked so well against the white patch of wall and tags by Sleep Country on Bank. 

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.
