ATX: WITHOUT A HOUSE

After passing these faces every morning on my way to work curiosity finally got the best of me. Over a span of 6 months I trekked out on the weekends/weeknights to converse with some of Austin's houseless (as they like to be called). These images are my attempt to share what I took away from each of these individuals. Most of their situations are very complex and aren't as cut and dry as most might think. - Phive
