Lee Cropper AKA The Mofo
 
I wish I could tell you how I found photography at an early age. I wish I did as well. But I didn't. I found it June 2005 whilst in New York taking photos of the city and the people. I got my first SLR in March 2006 and now my work is an open display of discovering my world.

Most of my work is quite personal to me. It helps me remember events that happen, the ones I sometimes forget. My memory is terrible.

People intrigue me; I am the guy staring at you when you are not looking. Photography lets me explore people more in an intimate way. People have this certain trust in you, and then you can push your luck which I enjoy. Getting away with it is even more enjoyable.
