One of our goals with the Portraits series is to spotlight different artists and creators that aren't following anyones rules but their own. Whether it's music, fashion or photography, everyone has their own story and their own individual come up.

Our friend Trashhand has definitely blown up over the past year as one of the most well known photographers on Instagram. Coming in at almost 250,000 followers with no progressional training, his story really represents what we love about this generation. If your passionate about something and dedicate yourself to it, you can make it happen. In our Portrait, Trash compares his art to that of a graffiti writer, explaining how his job is to show people locations that are unbeknownst to them prior to his photographs.
