Evil Friends

This photo set was inspired by the album "Evil Friends" by Portugal. The Man. Click the link to hear the album. I will also link each song below.

It was late 2013, and life was changing. I first heard Portugal. The Man so
me time near the beginning of autumn. I started this project in mid December. It started out as something to do. Then it became an examination of myself; my own identity. This period of my life was highly transitional. The lyrics that stood out for each song, seemed to be perfect and highly relevant.  This project truly helped me move forward; Breaking free from things I didn't realize I had tangled myself in.

Enjoy this photo series. <3

I shot them in a different order than they appear on the album. However, I will order them according to the track list.

Plastic Soldiers

Picture
"I can't keep my head up
I'd like to stay by my friends
Stay by my friends
But I can't keep my head up
I can't seem to keep my head

Could it be we got lost in the summer?
Well I know you know that it's over
But you're still in
Treading water"
- Plastic Soldiers by Portugal. The Man.

Creep In A T-Shirt

Picture
"I don't know what I know
But I know where it's at
Just because I lost it doesn't mean I want it back."

Evil Friends

Picture
"You know it's not because the light here gets brighter
And it's not that I'm evil,
I've got a friend in the devil,
But I can't even be your friend,
I can't even be your friend,
I can't even be your friend."

- Evil Friends by Portugal. The Man.

Hip-Hop Kids

We don't, we don't, we don't."

When the timing comes around I'll be brave yeah I'll be brave
Just let me go now
Let me go now"

Waves

Picture
"No one cares about the waves
At the bottom of the ocean
And at the bottom of the ocean
It's always blue
No one will remember
Cause nothing lasts forever
And everybody's looking
For somebody to use"

Holy Roller (Hallelujah)

I try my best to keep my feet on the ground
I'm always running around and around and around"

Someday Believers

Picture
"Your love may change, but time'll be the only thing you'll save
Don't blame yourself: there's no religion inside them
What can't be learned is trained
Once you find the end you start again
Just observe the lights that lead the way"

- Someday Believers by Portugal. The Man.

I don't watch the news
I just get up with a smile by you
And I don't want to talk about the world
I just want to smile, and smile some more"

- Smile by Portugal. The Man.
