Burt

Burt

This is Burt. He stopped me on 65th Street in New York asking med if I could spare a dollar or two for food.

When I tell him about the $2 portraits he agrees to participate.

Burt has been living in New York for all his life but his parents were from Ukraine. He tells me that he's been affected with cancer and laid of from work. This has forced him to beg on street, something he quite clearly doesn't seem to enjoy at all.

”What a system we have, huh?”, he says as I shoot my last frames of him.

I show him some of the photos and he shakes my hand thanking me for the money. I thank him for the chat and the portrait.

My first attempt at shooting a $2 portrait.

This is Peter. He was smiling friendly at me when I saw him on Greene Street, Manhattan.
We discussed the $2 Portrait Project and he agreed to participate.
