EYEFORMATION - LOWELL, MA
"Be a Tourist"

what's the idea behind your piece?
My wife and I have recently started traveling to as many places as possible. I'm proud to rock a visor with the camera strapped around my neck. She's got her hip pack styling while my brown socks stretch north. I love to stop a local in the middle of their work day to snap a shot of us in front of a fountain. My message is for the masses...be a
tourist.
