My friend Cam

This is Cam. He is my friend. He has a lot to say about the big topics in life: death, love, friendship, betrayal, freedom, bondage, and psychedelics. We sometimes have a lot of fun together, but other times I let myself get dragged into the dumps when I'm with him. He used to live in Asheville, NC, and practiced medicine and made a lot of money. Now he lives on the streets of San Francisco and shoots heroin. I've been photographing him for over a year and I'm not really sure what to say about him. I've tried to write about him many times but all that comes out is, blah blah blah. Totally useless words. He is larger than life, and we once went to the beach and watched the sunset together. Another time, I allowed him to smoke crack in my car. I'm really not sure what will happen to him, and I want to tell his story.





Waiting for his man.





Christmas Eve.


Sleeping.


That's the best I can do right now, Cam. Love you.
