BARBERSHOP. HAYWARD, CA

Barbershop: Black and Gold East Bay

Had the honor of bothering these amazing barbers while they worked at their new shop in Hayward. Had hella fun taking photos of their shop and their work. Super clean shop, and super clean work. I mainly shot with the 85mm. I liked the tighter field of view and subject/background separation it gave. 35mm seemed a bit too wide at times and I didn’t want to get in their way while they were working. For interior shots I used my 17mm vintage Tokina Lens adapted on my Sony a7iii. It was my first time taking photos for a barbershop.

Let me know what you think!
