Atlanta-based photographer Jason Travis has a cool photo series on Flickr called "Persona," where he snaps portraits of people along with the contents of their purses and bags.
The twenty-eight-year-old photographer came up with the idea because he was "interested in what people take with them on a daily basis." He also wanted to study what we have in common, and see if our individual possessions would show communal similarities. Travis’s Personas is also an eye opener for those who believe women carry more items in their handbags then men.

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry but I HIGHLY doubt that one dude had a slice of uncooked bacon in his bag along with his camera.....
ReplyDeleteI found your blog, at the Suggestion of Jason on the Intel Canada Facebook page- I think these are really great shots!
ReplyDeleteyou wouldn't want to see the inside of my purse though :P
I think this is a really great idea. The people are all just too beautiful and hipsters though.
ReplyDeleteI like the girl with the big knife, pepper spray, and the book titled 'love letters of great women'.
ReplyDeleteI don't think the photographer chose people based on whether they were attractive or not, @anonymous. That's just what they look like
