Fleeting Glimpses of Love on the New York Subway


Street photographer Matt Weber has been documenting life in New York City since 1984 when be bought his first camera, a Canon AE-1 with a 50mm lens. Since then he has taken thousands of photos that run the gamut of human emotion; from anger and hatred to love and compassion. You can go through his extensive archives on his blog weber-street-photography.com where you can scroll endlessly through his work and broad-based categories.

In a section entitled Urban Romance, Weber captures fleeting moments of love in New York. We found his subway portraits particularly striking, as the New York transit system is a whole world unto itself.

To learn more about the man behind the lens, there’s a great interview by Street Reverb Magazine that’s worth checking out. To see more from Matt, you can find him online at the links above.
