Originally Published on January 27, 2014 – John is 28 years old, and has been shooting Heroin for the past eight years. John is one of several addicts who will be included in my forthcoming documentary photography project on Heroin addiction.
I have been working this particular project for the past eight months. During this time, I have come to know several addicts on a deep and personal level. We’ve built relationships, and are working together to tell their stories These photos on my blog are but a small glimpse into the dark and dirty world of Heroin addiction.
