I haven't posted a portrait for my 100 Strangers Project since last March when I still was in Mazatlán, México! After chatting with this young man, I asked if I could photograph him, and, of course, he consented. James is originally from Azusa, California, and he is here in Minnesota to attend Metropolitan State College, majoring in math education. While attending school he works as a cashier at the newly opened Trader Joe's discount gourmet store located on Randolph and Lexington Avenues, the third one opened in the Twin Cities. It is wildly popular, and I must agree that it's a fun place to shop, not only because of the items and prices, but also because of their friendly young clientele, such as James.

ReplyDeleteInteresting portrait for your 100 strangers project. I guess you know that it is people that make businesses. I told our bank president in Rotary that the only reason I come to his bank to cash checks or to deposit money are the people he has working there. Every bank has people but some banks don't have the right people. Same with some stores.

Good for you for continuing this project. It nags at me because since I started I only have 2 and the last was back in May. As for TJs, it terrific.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you back into it. I always enjoyed them.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see that you have started shooting portraits again.
ReplyDeleteJames looks like a really nice guy. Good luck to him in his quest to become a math teacher - we need more people like him!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful face he has! I love the lines of his face. Fascinating portrait.
