This image reminds me of my hair-obsessed best friend who desperately wanted long hair.

Gypsy / Eden

San Francisco, CA 2011

When I first met Gypsy, she was living in a weekly hotel in the North Beach district of San Francisco. After a few months of working at the Roaring 20’s, she headed to the east coast in order to take care of some health issues. Six months later, she moved back to SF – this time in an apartment in the Richmond district. This is only a glimpse into her home life and nowhere near the final series of images of her but I figured that this particular shoot was worth posting.

Michelle

Alameda / San Francisco, CA 2011

After a night of shooting at the Roaring 20’s, I hopped on a bus with Michelle and headed over to Alameda where she is currently living. We stayed up til the wee hours of the morning and talked about our night, our past, and life in general. That afternoon after conversing some more over breakfast, I asked her to continue her day as if I wasn’t there. She explained that she doesn’t spend much time at home and that she would take me to her second home – the mall. Michelle is a self proclaimed shopaholic.” I have a serious problem. If I want something, nothing is going to stop me.”  – even if that means having to work double shifts at the club to make up for what she spent. Because I got to get to know her better, I’m not completely satisfied with this series of images. There are a few missing components that would accurately portray who she is – luckily, I got invited for another sleep over so consider this part one.
