Street Portfolio

Zach's attempt at street photography is to capture a story by a single image that are never able to be recreated.[1] "Beauty in a photo is defined best as capturing a moment unable to ever be recreated. In photos, where you can see a decisive and pure moment captured in time, is where I believe the true beauty of photography is most evident. - Zach Boisjoly"[2]
