Gregory Reeves

Photography – Los Angeles

Gregory picked up a simple polaroid camera, started shooting back in 2007 and hasn\'t stopped since.It was obvious even then to the people around him that Gregory had a special eye for the immense levels of life surrounding, and it wasn\'t long before his grandfather gave him his first Canon FT QL, which is also the camera Gregory will often be found using even today. Compelled to show his view of the world, he took off on his bicycle to document the streets of Los Angeles, capturing anything from a whimisical chinese lantern bobbing overhead in the breeze of Chinatown, to a gruesomely exhausted transient napping on a sidewalk.There is a certain purity found in his photographs that draws the eye to take a closer look, to understand the story that is found within them. Gregory\'s passion for life is sewn beautifully in the stills he produces and the future ahead of him shines brightly in the eyes behind the lens. When asked what he wants his photography to accomplish Gregory answered simply, \" I want to expose the world for what it truly is. I want to show people what they cannot see alone. I want to free their minds of barriers.\" For additional photos check out my website http://www.wix.com/reevesimpulse/freetobe
