A New Portrait From Alabama

A quick preview before a longer preview

Good photos, like good ideas, need a gestation period. My long-term projects often require me to step away from the work for a good while before it is brought into the world. But I am now peeking back into my folder of American Gingers. This is an early preview of that project for paid subscribers. I will release new Gingers work from the US more widely in due course.

Each interview I made with the sitters requires transcription and editing for sense and concision. And choosing images takes longer than you might imagine. But luckily there is a deadline to spur me on.

In 2026, I aim to release a new book: Gingers of America. I don’t know how exactly but I have the portraits.

For now, here is a sneak peek of a wonderful couple of people I met in Alabama.
