Photo Essay

kenny

nosey

kenny is now 22 and he is the youngest of four sons.

he was, is, and will always be my baby.

when he was barely two years old I began learning b&w photography, especially infrared, and he was usually dragged along with me to many photojournalistic jobs, was in most of my non commercial shots as well as at my side in the darkroom..tugging on my apron strings.
