Homelessness Series

So I forgot to post this closer to the print date of the section because that was a crazy crazy time. I was working on the series, but also I was mostly taking vacation days- so deal with it.

The Gadsden times published a section on Homelessness entitled ‘When Homelessness” hits home. We published a 6 page print section and a seperate niche site at When Homelessness Hits Homes

I shot several of the stories that went with the series- and I even had the cover photo and the photo on the rack card. It was pretty fun to work on a big indepth project like this.
I am not super happy with all of the photos since I had to shoot it one handed b/c of the broken arm- btu I am proud of the project as a whole.

Here are two little slideshows of two of the stories I shot. If you follow the link you can get to some of the interactive graphs and graphics I developed.

13th Place: a Children’s Shelter

Malcom: a highly educated homeless man

    Thanks Eric for posting these. I had meant to look up the series when we got home but hadn’t found it yet. The link takes me to the blog not the GTO. could you check it?
    I think you shots of Malcom are especially powerful.

    Should be fixed now- I dunno why that link didn’t work.
