This Photographer Took Pictures Of New Yorkers In The 2000s That Are Split Up Into Two Categories, Shoppers And Workers (28 Pics)

Article created by: Hidrėlėy

The best media that we, people, have to travel back in time are video and photographs. Through them, we can get a glimpse into the past, connecting us to people and places that today are just faded memory.

Richard Renaldi's portraiture photographic project "Shoppers and Workers" has captured vibrant individuals around New York City circa the 2000s. The stunning fashion of shoppers and the neat uniforms of workers portray people's social status of different ages and ethnicities of that time.

We invite you to scroll down below and immerse yourself in these lively images. And if you would like to see more of Renaldi's works on Bored Panda, see his previous posts of Touching Strangers and Typology of the American Teenager.
