All images photographed between October 8th and November 8th 2011.

This photobook – The Newly Discovered Findings Of the Me You thought You Knew Volume 1 - was created in 31 days starting October 8th , 2011.

The theme for this photobook came from the realization that no one ever really knows any one. Whether it is meeting someone over the internet or knowing them from the beginning of ones lifetime, there are always hidden information that may never need to be known but add a deeper sense of trust, or even to over come some curiosity.

By creating a photobook I was able to use this opportunity to practice my photography which become a wonderful hobby that helps me express myself in just another way then people already know me for.

In this book, you will find photos taken in 31 days. The photos were shot in response to 35 questions I asked my

friends and family to ask me in order for them to get to know me more. Not realizing that some of the questions would help me realize things I forgot about myself or enhance the things I did, I was glad this project stumbled into my world.

For some, this will be nothing other than something you wouldn't care for. For others, this will be a realization that no one is ever truly known and might add the possibility of asking others or yourself a few questions. For me, it is an excitement to share these photos with you, and I hope that you will enjoy them.
