Rio de Janeiro. I just have to love all of the beach workers and sellers in Rio. An interesting cast of characters all around who let you know what they are selling yet do not over hustle. No matter how crowded the beaches here, one can always get a chair and a caipirinha fast. Bruno, setting up this umbrella, has also become a beach friend and photo subject. I almost always work this way. Get to know ONE beach worker for example and then photograph them over time. I am not a wanderer. I find my spot and stick. Why? Because first off I figure one place is as good as another. I let the people/pictures come to me. Looking around the next corner for pictures doesn’t work for me. I wait. Sure, for events etc , I am on the move. Yet to capture the beauty and gesture of everyday life, I simply live in it. #beachgames #copacabana #rio#burnmagazine
