They shoot New York

"I didn't want my images to be precious. I didn't want to do a lot of staging and remove myself from the process. So I decided to just record my daily experiences. I took a couple shots in my mother's Stuyvesant Town apartment, where I grew up. I shot my doctor's name board, and the bridge club where I hang out. I didn't want it to be overthought—I just wanted to capture what it's like for me to move around each day."
