Jon Reis
I photograph in the social documentary street photographer tradition both at home and when traveling. My pictures are snapshots of people interacting with each other and their environment, which make poignant statements about contemporary American lifestyle. The images do not tell stories but balance form and content to make my photographs both humorous and curious.
