Lost Tooth

I went to the dentist in Nveuo Lardeo, Mexico. I didn't have health insurance in America so I went to Mexico instead because It cheap and good. They had to take a tooth out. Later that day I went to a flea market and found a point and shoot for three dollars. I had a extra roll of film in the bag that I brought with me to Mexico. On this first roll of film I decided to take portraits of people that I met on the street. Their were thirty-six exposure on that roll. I only took couple in Mexico, then I headed back home which is New Orleans. I continue to take portraits of people there. I also had to take a trip to New York City last minute, I continue the series. When I finish the roll I honestly didn't know what to expect but what I found was something I loved. This series is something special to me because I made something painful into something beautiful. I learned a lot about life from this series. Everyone has a story, here is eleven stories including my story. Ciao
