My 30 Photographs Documenting Daily Life Amidst San Francisco’s Residents And Workers
I am Joe Quintana, a California-based photographer. I hold a BFA in Photography from the Art Institute of San Francisco and an MFA from Stanford University.
For more than 10 years straight, I photographed in the streets of San Francisco where I lived and worked at the time. What I have to share is my personal exploitation of images of living day-to-day with the people who live and work in the city.

This is a scene I think everyone would be familiar with, no matter where they come from :)

My wife and I walked out of a hardware store on Castro a few years ago with our daughter. A chubby man was strolling by with a knit doily on his crotch. That was his only clothing.

I used to love going to HSB. I interviewed Warren Hellman for an article in the Oakland Tribune when I was a journalism major at SF State.

I think every single photo here is taken in my hometown, San Francisco. From the Sister of Perpetual Indulgence to the leather boy with the mask to the surfers in Outer Sunset to the annoying tourist go-karts. To stop and notice the individuality is nice, especially given how much the city has changed due to tech bros on one end of the spectrum and the opioid/unhoused crisis on the other. It’s nice to be reminded to find the beauty of the uniqueness that still thrives within all the ugly noise.

Love the pics, but disagree w/the title. These are all images of individualism, not of solitude. It makes me all nostalgic of NYC (although the streets of SF have a lot more surfers & a lot less yuppies). I find it very rewarding to live in a country where no matter how unusual, different, weird or extreme we are, we're not alone & sooner or later we find "our people". Maybe not in our blood families or hometown, but they're out there. Yay! I celebrate you all, you beautiful weirdoes. And yes, I'm one too. Double yay! \\( ❛ ͜ʖ ❛ )//
