Louis Mendes is a legend of the streets of New York. He makes street portraits since a long time ago. He used to use Peel Apart film but since Fuji stopped the production, he is now using Instax.
In 2019 I was in a terrible moment in my life. I do not enjoy being on camera. I crossed him a lot of times and never decided to ask him for a portrait. That time, I did. And here is he signing it.
This was taken with the phone I used at that time, an iPhone 11 Pro Max.
