“This is the OG LA photographer. He's absolutely incredible and his documentation is so honest. This is the real OG and these people are allowing him to shoot these photos of them because these are his homies. It's not like he's using them as subjects. He's just hanging out like this is a day in life with the homies. And I think this is something that is really important to me. And what I try to establish with the people that I work with and shoot with. I don't want to call you my client. You are the homie and we're hanging out today. And then we're going to try to get some money from somebody. Or not. We're just going to try to create and just try to build stuff and hopefully it just works out.”
