Stranger #1/100 Matt, the music nerd
Matt Joyner left life in Oregon and moved to Washington, DC to work at Crooked Beat Records in Adams Morgan, Washington, D.C.-all on a whim. He just looked like he belonged there, too, so I had to make him my first stranger. Favorite bands? They change daily. This morning he was listening to Neil Young and the B-52s. Later, he dialed in some Talking Heads to do the dishes.
About 100 Strangers: The One Hundred Strangers project is a learning group for people who want to improve the social and technical skills needed for taking portraits of strangers and telling their stories. The method is learning by doing.
The challenge: Take 100 photographs of at least 100 people you don't know. Approach a person or group of people and ask for permission to both take a photo of them and to post it to this group. Get to know your subjects. Take their pictures. Tell their stories.
