The “Mayfest” project currently has our light tables swamped with hundreds of informal Youth portraits taken during the summer of 1987.

As we compile and digitize the original 4×5 and 120 chromes we’ll add them here with larger images over on our Flickr Pro account here.

We’re still in the early stages of the project, working on getting back in touch after 23 years since their original sessions. If you lived in Winston-Salem North Carolina in the late 1980′s, recognize yourself or someone you knew let us know via comments below.

You can read the full backstory and find out more about our upcoming Mayfest retrospective here.
