Seattle // Street Photography

Free hugs. Yeah, that’s right. In this down economy, folks could use some huggin and this guy was giving them out. He was very well received at Pike Place Market. Hug it out baby.

I haven’t been shooting much lately. Not sure why, really. I take a camera everywhere I go. You’d think being in a new city there would be inspiration abound. Meh, not so much. I’ve put a couple of projects to paper that I hope to make a reality this fall, stay tuned for that. By the way, since landing in Seattle I’ve completely bought into the coffee culture here. Coffee is serious business in the Rain City, and in the home of Starbucks, Starbucks just won’t do. Take that as you well. More photos soon…I promise.

Can anyone name the make and model? I never got close enough to see what kind of car this was. Kicking myself.

About a month ago, I saw this convertible Buick and didn’t have my camera with me. I was kicking myself, as I’ve had some great luck spotting classic cars around Seattle. Low and behold last weekend, I spotted the same green Buick parked in the exact same spot with green storefront making a great backdrop. They say photo opps are like lightening and never strike twice. They’re wrong. Check out the rest of my classic car series here.

Always, always have your camera with you. Walking around downtown Seattle last weekend running errands turned the corner and spotted these inflatables. The scene begged to be preserved in pixels.
