The Story Behind “Notice”
After two years of continuous travel between the great urban centers of New York City, Tokyo, Berlin, Buenos Aires, and other cities, the world ground to a halt.
By virtue of this most random timing, I found myself stuck in a place I had never been before. A small but beautiful suburban neighborhood of Vancouver was to be my home for the first 5 months of the pandemic.
Everything that was my “normal” suddenly changed to its opposite. Instead of traveling the globe, I was contained to one neighborhood. Instead of meeting and photographing random people all day long, I’d walk for hours without seeing more than a handful of humans. Instead of my busy client work schedule, my inbox was quiet and days blended together.
So, I started walking.
Every day, a few hours, camera in hand. It became my meditative practice and helped me ground myself in a world where everything suddenly seemed uncertain.
I walked around my small neighborhood for 123 consecutive days. I practiced slowing down and paying attention so I could see better. Suddenly my world, which initially felt so small, was revealed to be a massive universe with tiny stories everywhere.
What a journey it has been. I’m so thankful that you’ve been along for the ride and it’s only the beginning. Much more to come.
Thank you for all your support. It means the world. I cannot wait to see this book out in the world, on your coffee table, in your hands, and inspiring you to keep shooting and noticing all the beauty that is around us.
Take good care of yourselves and others.
Wesley
