in the words of Nan Goldin:

- "“I didn't care about good photography, I cared about complete honesty"

i feel as if the world of photography is becoming less placed in the category of fine art and more of a social media aspect. i have learnt through my faults and come to realize that digital is ruining the medium of photography.

these photos are my life. my life through a somewhat candid journalism or documentation of my life. i am merely wanting to bring back the true snapshot photography style that so many photographs in the past once were famous for, but now completely forgotten.

a lot of my images would be considered bad quality, but i don't care. it's not about that. it's about the people in the photo and my life with them. many are faceless and unidentified which brings a more arty perspective which is simply a coincidence.
