I hit the street with the free spirit of a street photographer, looking for interesting scenes and situations, humour and light. It is although, the people I meet that ultimately fascinate me. With a rush of fear I approach my subject in the hope to hear their story and gain permission to photograph them.
24 hours in L.A no time to waste.
