ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Street photography has always been a passion of mine from the beginning of my career. One morning while shooting in Downtown LA, I met Willie Moore on a street corner while waiting for the light to change. I asked him if I could create a portrait, he obliged. He told me his name and that he was 86 years old and that he was from Birmingham, Alabama. I shot a couple of images, and in 30 seconds he crossed the street and we parted ways.

AUTHOR
Brian Malloy is a working photographer from the Boston area. Since 1989 he has been tripping the shutter of a camera, capturing people, places and things along the way. His obsession with creating images started when he took a basic photography class, and this led countless hours in the darkroom smelling like chemicals. After running out of photography classes in college and graduating with a business degree he enrolled in the New England School of Photography. At NESOP he learned all he could from his professors and fellow students, and in 1993 started out on his own. Since then he has made a living out of doing what he loves every day and wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. Only recently has he started to show his work in group shows, and is working towards his first solo show of his work documenting the religious pageantry of Spain’s Holy Week.
