Alecs Konson | Untitled - South x Southeast photomagazine

July 2012

Compelling visual moments present themselves without notice or warning. Mobile photography enables me to capture these moments. My phone is not delicate, it is always available, it is discreet. I have the freedom to be creating at any moment, to grab meaningful stills from the film reel that is life.
