My name is Carroll.

When I was six years old, my father gave me a rinky-dink fixed-focus 35mm camera.

In college I studied art and photojournalism.

There’s a moment before it happens, when you see it come together. When little things fall into place, when all the variables suddenly appear sharp. Then with your fingertips, you can twist and torture ugly reality into a novel kind of beauty.

I want to tell you something without telling. I want to put an idea in your head but not an exact phrase. I want to show you something that you already knew, but didn’t know how to see.
