Perfect Strangers: New York City Street Photographs

Perfect Strangers captures the kinetic bustle of changing streets and passing crowds in New York City.Over the last seven years, Melissa O'Shaughnessy has photographed daily on the streets of New York, capturing fleeting moments when the light, the people, and the chaos of the city collide in surprising, poignant, and humorous ways. As one of only a few women street photographers contributing to this dynamic genre, O'Shaughnessy enters the territory with clarity and a distinctly humanist eye. Perfect Strangers is a refreshing addition to the tradition of street photography.
