Grateful for everyone that made all of this work possible. Every favour, every friend that donated their time, my mentors for their insight and everyone who encouraged me to pursue what I want to do.
Special Thanks to @erikbayley for the sick reel edit
âWe are food for worms, lads. Believe it or not, each and one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold, and die.â
This project, more than any other, has been a journey of the heart for me. It was born from a place of deep personal loss, a tribute to a friend whose brilliance was extinguished too soon. He was a beacon of potential - easily one of the smartest people I have ever met with intelligence and grit to achieve whatever they wanted to in this life. I had the honor of calling him one of my best friends. I designed a nostalgic look for this with @josh_the_progenitor , and I did it with my friend in mind. Itâs how I saw him, how I want to remember him and itâs how I want to see the people I have the privilege of loving and caring for while they are still here.
Even after a few years as I still grieve, I wish he were here to see where his efforts got me and made me who I am.
In the pursuits of day to day life, I forget that we will all be gone someday. So, to everyone who helped me achieve this and all the people I have the privilege of calling my friends, I am grateful that you and I exist in this moment in time so we can share a cup of coffee, a few laughs and difficult times together. And, know that each moment we have the privilege of sharing together, I will remember you in 4:3 and with heavy film grain. :)
Okay Cy@! đ¤

Bought a truck.
Drove 10,000km across the U.S.
Nashville, Dallas, Austin, Memphis, Cincinnati, back to Toronto.
Mid Jan, but Happy New Year. I hope you are spontaneous this year too.
All shot on iPhone using Leica Lux.
Surreal.
Unreal.
Not Real.
Either way, accurate depiction of me at 29

Life lately.
Making new friends. Reconnecting with old ones.
Strengthening former injuries, moving better.
Thinking, reading and writing but feeling more.
Trying to call my parents and family often.
Happier, stronger and maybe a bit wiser.
Ok Cy@!

Mr. Chau.
He has grown to be a father like figure in my life. Worked every job in the world before he opened up his mechanic shop. I wanted to take a photograph of him that captured his essence and have something to always remember him by.
As life moves forward and memories inevitably blur, this photo will always be a reference to a memory of someone who has shaped a part of my life with their quiet strength, wisdom, kindness and a man who has built his life with his own hands.
