Aaron Hegert

Aaron Hegert Work from The Money Makers and Every Day. Hegert’s work is a fantastic example of observational photography well backed by a solid concept. I included one shot from Every Day because it reminds me so powerfully of a Cartier-Bresson in style, humor, and composition.  “Public places around the world are inundated with advertising […]

Slinkachu Work from Little People. I stumbled across Slinkachu’s book the other day at the bookstore and decided to look up the project and share it.
