Stunning People Of Peterborough Photo Essay Series Launches

Inspired by the Humans of New York series, photographer Chance Faulkner—with the help of Kemi Akapohas launched a "People of Peterborough" series.

"I just love the city and the people in it," Faulkner tells PTBOCanada. "This allows me to get out of my comfort zone. And get to know people in Peterborough."

"People of Peterborough is a series setting out to provide a glimpse into who really makes up the beautiful city of Peterborough. Each person we meet or pass on the street has a unique story, a story that longs to be shared."

"What is different about my series is I'm trying to focus on taking a real nice fine art portrait, as well as get a story. It's also in black and white."

"Currently it's just people downtown I'm focusing on, but I also hope to expand from the downtown," Faulkner tells us.

You can find out the stories behind the pictures on the "People of Peterborough" Facebook page.
