In 2007 Photographer Bill Wadman traveled around the United States and Europe with a single mission. Each day he photographed, edited and posted online a different portrait of a different person. It was a mammoth effort meticulously followed that resulted in one of the most authentic collection of portraits I’ve ever seen. The result, entitled simply 365 Portraits is a significant and beautiful collection of images. I was honored to have been included as a subject in Bill’s Project and think the photo that he took of me is one of the best I’ve ever seen. While Bill shot some famous people in his book (like Astronaut Buzz Aldrin) I found some of his most compelling portraits to be those of everyday people as part of their everyday lives. Here are some of my favorites: - Thomas Hawk

These portraits are very impressive. It is hard enough just taking a good picture every day, but to take a great portrait of a different person each day for a year is just amazing. I'm very tempted by this book. - Andy Roth

I bought mine earlier today. I think it's an interesting project with tremendous results and I think it's also a good way to support an artist directly financially while owning a very unique book by an emerging American photographer. Bill's still young and I think he has a huge future ahead of himself as a portrait artist and look forward to his future projects. - Thomas Hawk

Thomas, thanks, I reserved a copy today. I'm looking forward to seeing Bill's work on print. - Eric Thompson
