Becky shared with me the story of a devastating loss she suffered, and how Tuttu has helped her through. Tuttu is short for tuttugu, which means 20 in Icelandic! He was a present for Becky and her husband's 20th anniversary. Meeting Becky and Tuttu (who is, without doubt, the best boy in the world!) was one of the sweetest and most moving "100 strangers" that I've done.
Sierra is at left, Loni right. As I walked past them on my photowalk, Sierra complimented me on my camera. We got to talking, and it turns out she's a professional photographer! Check out her portraits and other work at IG: sdotlauren. Sierra wants a Leica, but I think she does amazing work with her Nikon!
Gordon complimented me on my camera as I walked by. He is a journalist and photographer for an amazing newspaper, Street Sense, in DC. They cover the lives of people experiencing homelessness and advocate for them, too. Their goal is to end homelessness in the area. I admire that kind of creative, social justice work so much!
