Induction Day

>> Jul 1, 2011

I spent the day in Annapolis, Md. on Friday at the U.S. Naval Academy Induction Day for all the first year students, called Plebes. My original plan was to follow a local kid through the day, and hopefully follow him throughout the summer-long training program. But, it's the Academy's policy to not allow stories of individuals due to the potentially stressful experience they may have. So I made what I could of the day. It's a bit of a distant take and nothing too personal, but it was a fun shoot nonetheless.

Awesome job, man. Nice seeing. I've wanted to shoot a couple things down there for years, but always away when they happen. One day. One day.

Drew, these are great. There is a theme going throughout every photo. It's almost like they are new people stumbling around trying to get to that hug at the end. Thanks for sharing.
