In the spring of 2016 I set out with an outreach group with the intent of photographing the homeless within their environment. I knew that it would take time to develop trust (in my case, five months before taking a single image). But doing so helped define the project and the portraits themselves: originally, I envisioned full-length portraits, but soon found myself closing in on their faces, their expressions. I realized I wanted to present these portraits as images of individuals, not stereotypes.
