A old Trip to the Hamptons

My sophomore year of college was a interesting year in my life. It was a year after 9/11, a year after a 3 year relationship, and year of living inside of the Hassleblad camera. Looking back on this work reminds me of how powerful the tool of photography is. I love looking at old photography because it brings back your original intentions and helps reground you into why you picked up the camera in the first place. The Camera is a way of exploring this extrodinary landscape, a way to extract teaching from it, and a way to capture it. The camera and its function has evolved/devloved for me and still is a tool for seeing. Only difference between now and College is that I have to make a living with it.

These images were taken over a 48 hour period . Im surprised my camera made it out of the scene, Considering the partying we were doing . The camera made it out and these images reflect a weekend of a younger side of vision and of partying with a good friend from college.
