Shoot the Breeze: Liam Crivellaro

Liam Crivellaro’s photos take you to a place of youth, sunshine and salt water. His photos exude their own innate and appealing adolescent nostalgia as they depict his young friends messing around in sunshine-soaked scenes. The 16 year old surfer and skateboarder from Cape Cod has been documenting his adventures and road trips with a 35mm disposable camera for just over year. Liam is the youngest photographer to be featured on Shoot the Breeze. – Talya Cyr
