Thank you for your kind memorial. John free wanted us all to be thoughtful framers. This skill or craft as he would call it , lends itself most importantly for how the viewed photograph raises up the viewer . He wants you to get closer. Share, make prints , give them away. What we do can change the world he would often say. I’m here to tell you it’s true. John Free photographed my first breath. I make this message from his darkroom , he spent 50 years in here!
Scott, it's so great to hear from you. I'm not sure if you think about the influence John had on a generation but I want you to know his lessons have truly left a lasting impression on me and my work. Especially with respect to sharing photography in a meaningful way. Thank you for your words ✌🏾
