I’m starting a new portrait-series here on my blog centered on baristas in coffee shops in the New Orleans area.
The first in my series is Greg from Mojo Coffee House, located on the corner of Magazine and Race. It’s a great little coffee shop that we used for Keith to change clothes in (that is, the restroom part of it…) when we were doing his shoot a couple weeks back. It was one of those things where I felt obligated to buy something, so I got Keith a choc au lait. It was good. he said.
Anyway, as I was standing there talking to Greg, the idea hit me: I love drinking coffee, and taking portraits, and drinking coffee. This would make a fun project. What isn’t great about this.
Lastly, I have full intentions of hitting up all the coffee shops that I like, and when that’s done, randomly walking the streets to find more. But if YOU have a coffee shop you like (p.s., no Starbucks. I..just…can’t…doit. sorry, I tried. fail), hit me up with an address, and I’ll put them on here. I love referrals the most, so let me know what you’ve got!
Greg / Mojo:
Greg in action. A beast.
