"The Death of Youth" began as I was about to turn thirty and I needed an outlet to demonstrate how I was feeling. This project emerged from a smaller, much more intimate series of Polaroids that I shot with one of the models on a few point-and-shoot cameras. Once I saw the developed photos, I decided to start the larger project.
To find the models, I used a lot of casting websites, references from
other models, and some friends and girlfriends.
