When In Roam Volume II
Film Photography
Don’t Judge a Photo Book By It’s Cover

The Second installment of the When In Roam Series is a magazine dedicated to film photography… the “old shit” if you will. the Pure shit if you ask me. Every shot has a clear intention. As i Roam from city to city I’ll always have some type of camera in my hand documenting what I see. The good, the bad and the how the fuck is this even real…

“When In Roam, take a strange substance, walk down an alley and see where you end up. Talk with a stranger, get into that strangers car and listen to their story as they drive you around downtown Los Angeles. You will find yourself at a point in life where playing it safe is no longer an option. I found that point. I hope you find it too.” - Chandler M Watson

A Stay In L.A.

I came to this town not knowing what to expect.

I would spend hours upon hours roaming the streets of Downtown Los Angeles…

You get to see what i see.

Over the past month i would wake up, take a piss, drink a glass of wine. Then i would head to the train station and go to a random part of town with the camera in head and walk with no destination in mind just roaming… i had some interesting people who i would have never met if i didn’t decide to get out of my comfort zone.

About

I went to a Photobook release which was The Tales of The Sunset blvd, and after hearing the panel talk for an hour and some change I questioned myself, Why am i not doing more. Why am i sitting on these photographs. It does nobody any good if the sit on a hard drive never viewed. If the rolls of film just sit undeveloped for who knows how long. After years of delaying… I have something.

When I first started shooting i would barrow a Nikon D3200 and just wander around Oklahoma City taking photos, i would slowly start to venture out further and further just to see what i could see. I would share these photographs on a tumblr page which i titled
