Story League

Every one has a story to tell, it’s just a matter of how you tell it. Story Tellers are a unique mix of entertainer. They aren’t traditional comedians, but pretty much all that I encountered were funny. A sense of humor usually helps, since they tell intimate and personal stories to a room of strangers. 

Story League was exactly that; a League of Story Telling shows, events and competitions held throughout Washington, D.C. I was one of their photographers and spent a lot of nights listening in and photographing their performances without being too intrusive. The clack of a camera shutter can really ruin a moment. Laughter helps though. Follow the story, figure out how each performer builds to a punchline or break, and be ready to get what you can during laughter and applause.

I love working on documentary style projects and am always in search of new subjects and collaborators.
