Meth Recovery

with one comment

Earlier in the year I started a personal project about a 17-year old recovering meth addict.  I spent a couple months with him at the half-way house and pretty much wherever else he went.  It was an amazing opportunity and I learned so much about working on a long term project like this and a lot about myself as a photographer and person.  I’m going to try and post a photo or two every week from the time I spent with him along with a brief blurb about the photo.

This is the first photo I ever shot with him on the first day I brought my camera to the house.  This was his fourth or fifth day into the program and everyone is given a small bible to read along with the rules of the house and such.
