Port City Samaritan's Home - Providing Shelter and Support in Mobile

During my regular walk back home I went by this poor guy lying on the street smoking a cigarette. He had this “cozy” living room, an underground tunnel with a nice view to the other side of the street. He might have his own joke to the world, look at his cup, it says: “Who are you?”.

Case Management and Support

We provide essential services such as access to food, clothing, hygiene products, and medical assistance to individuals experiencing homelessness in Mobile, AL.

I met this homeless man in front of the Gießen railway station. I really struggled with myself to ask him for a photo but eventually I’m very happy that I was able to overcome my shyness and take this photo. By that I captured the awesome expression this man has and I noticed that he is actually a really nice guy. From this day on we always had a little chat when we met. Unfortunately I didn’t see him for a longer time now. I really hope he is fine!

Serving the Homeless

We provide access to clean shower facilities and hygiene products, ensuring that homeless individuals can maintain their personal hygiene and dignity.

Please practice social distancing, self-quarantine if needed and as instructed, and please wash your hands frequently to help stop the spread of Covid-19.

Ugh, pastels are SO 2018... I drove past this near downtown Salem, Oregon, and for some reason was amused with the color scheme--busted light cyan couch meets abandoned pastel purple and pink industrial building. Just because it's abandoned junk, doesn't mean it can't have a trendy color scheme.

This portrait was taken on October 20, 2018 in the historic centre of Prague. A few years ago I rediscovered my passion for faces telling some story. I collect these portraits on the streets while waiting for the right moment. In an affort to make intimate portraits of beggars and homeless people I’m talking with them to capture the real emotion in them. They have lot of stories to tell. Those are stories where I usually lern something new. I especially look at their eyes, feel empathy and sometimes give them money. I let them tell their stories through pictures.
