Emmylou Harris, Lawrence Record Shop, Nashville, TN, 2012

The shot of her outside Lawrence Record Shop feels so candid, like a real slice of a busy Nashville afternoon in 2012. The black-and-white processing brings out the texture of the street light perfectly, and it’s already up on my wall.

The grain on this print feels like it was pulled straight from a 2012 contact sheet, which makes the quiet moment outside the shop feel even more real. She’s caught mid-thought, and the busy street behind her adds just the right amount of chaos. I’ve stared at it longer than I expected to.

The framing on this photo makes that busy Nashville sidewalk feel almost quiet, like you're catching her mid-thought instead of just passing by. I’ve had it on my wall for a week and keep noticing little details in the background each time.
