I like to head down to Las Vegas Blvd with my cameras and friends to unwind and see whats happening on the streets. We usually hit Fremont or LVB. I love these spots because there are always new tourists with the same crazy faces scattered among the crowd. My favorite subjects are the people that live on the street. They usually have a great story or are just so crazy they become a story. These folks are true to life. The guy in the first image was just chilling in a construction walkway at City Center. He was drawing the best eagle I've seen drawn on the back of a pizza box with a ball point pen. I had to stop and chat with him. He didn't have much to say except that he loved to draw so when he found a pen and hunk of something, he just drew. The second guy was so happy he was, " Only twelve dollars away from a room!" I snapped his picture and gave him a couple dollars to put him a little closer to his room. The third shot here is something I see a lot living in Las Vegas. A dad is pictured here with his daughter and son watching the girls dance inside the casino. Probably not the best way to spend time with your kids on the family vacation. All these people were found within a square mile of each other. Probably the main reason I love shooting in Las Vegas.
