Through the Eyes of a Vendor

This summer Dave Thatcher of Picture Me Here led a workshop for a handful of Denver VOICE vendors interested in photography. Thatcher, a photographer, videographer, and community activist based in Denver, taught us how to frame a shot and tell a story with an image.

After the workshop was over, participating vendors were given a free disposable Kodak camera. The following are some of the highlights from the project.  


Randy Keller

Randy used his camera to capture his daily rituals, or, as he refers to them, his “highlights of monotony.”
