Steve Simon’s passion for documentary photography

I realized that maybe the photography that first attracted me as a young man on the streets of Montreal — Henri Cartier-Bresson and the great street photographers — was not what I was doing anymore. Partly because of practicality — lack of time on assignments — I was shooting in a very formulaic way. I wanted to see if I could break away and rekindle that innocence of vision that I [once] had. I found that the project was my way back into that wonder of photography that I experienced as a young guy.
