People Making Things

 We stopped in Fairfax CA and stayed with our friend Trina for the night. For breakfast on our way out of town, we tried the Hummingbird- a very charming New Orleans style diner. After we ordered our eggs from the woman who used an authentic "Ma'am" and "Y'all", we soon realized there were some excellent photos on the walls. This woman, the owner and New Orleans native Michelle L. Elmore, is also the artist. A great experience. 

The 'grill' photos were all named after numbered Wards in NOLA. With photos like this, I enjoy thinking about the process in approaching people for these shots.
