Sterling Allen

When photographing East Side Austin, I attempt to portray the everyday beauty and pride of its residents and their environment. Through photography, I strive to call attention to subtle yet momentous situations. With these photographs and others along the same line, I want to provoke the viewer to move beyond preconceived notions about specific people, places, and things while making an effort to reveal the beautiful and majestic qualities present within common, ordinary moments.
