Photographing strangers is a necessity for many photographers. However, not many actively seek out complete strangers as subjects.
As a personal project, the duo behind LA-based photography studio Kremer Johnson sent an ad into the Craigslist universe asking for " interesting people to photograph "for $20 an hour in return.
They initially wanted to photograph just one subject.
The resulting images, compiled into a photo series dubbed " Craigslist Encounters ," ended up featuring 65 complete strangers in intimate and unique settings.
Business Insider spoke to Neil Kremer about the series. Take a look at the portraits.
