For their 15th Anniversary Annual Report the Dorrance Scholarship Program wanted to do something special, profile past recipients. We started in September with a test shoot in Seattle, and after mid November shoots in Tucson and Phoenix we spent a week traveling between Brooklyn, Atlanta, San Diego and Berkeley. It was a great experience getting to spend some time with each of these amazing individuals. Thanks to Jane Bock of 12Below and Jim Hensley, Executive Director of DSP, for bringing us in to create the imagery for the report.

Hermosillo Flea Market
Spent some time in Hermosillo Mexico at a local Flea Market and Photographed some of the interesting scenes within the structure. I love to shoot from the hip and see how open everyone will be when in front of camera. Here are some of the people you might see if you go to Hermosillo market. Everything you can imagine to buy from car parts, old electronics, cell phone charger and great food to be enjoyed. You never know what you might encounter when you explore
