The Barber requested a portrait of him at work and in my next visit I am to carry a print for him. This is how I connect with people…some places connection happens instantly and at others some challenge. Generally I walk away happy in the end.
This photo is not posed or staged. I was working as a volunteer for Habitat for Humanity and we were fixing a house of an old couple across the street from this shop to help prevent the old couple from getting evicted. It was a very hot day and I went in the barbershop and asked the barber if I could sit down there for a bit and cool down. He welcomed me and offered cold water. The barber stood like that holding his chair as he looked out the door waiting for customers. I took this photo as I sat there drinking water. I was drawn to the expressions on his face as he was lost in some thoughts. This old barbershop is in one of the forgotten neighborhoods of Charlotte, North Carolina with long lasting economic impact of redlining due to racial segregation policies of the recent past. You can see part of my leg and the other empty chair in the mirror that is hanging in the bottom right corner of the frame.
