In 2018, I visited Clacton-on-Sea, a middle class beach resort town in the UK on the Essex coast. It seemed appropriate to do some street photography. I don’t care much for monuments or landscapes - I like to see and capture how people live in other corners of the world.

It’s Santa! I know him! And I know where he vacations in the summer time - after spending so much time at the North Pole, Santa likes to head to the shore and dig his toes into the sand. My friend Tony and I enjoy doing a summer session for Santa - where will he go next year?

The haldi ceremony that is held before a wedding is a time for the couple to relax and have fun as their loved ones bless them by messily and laughingly smearing them with a paste made from tumeric. Leanet and Sayd’s celebration on the beach in Fort Lauderdale is an example of how to do haldi right!

While on assignment in Charleston, SC, I went to Folly Beach and met a kite surfer, Nick Ellyn.  So I shot him, just because . . . 

Street photography does not have to be on the literal street.  Sometimes it is on the Atlantic Ocean.
