“I’m a photographer. But I’m not the kind of photographer who prefers looking at life through a lens. If we take photographs to remember, what do we do when we’re not taking photographs?” — Michael David Murphy.

Murphy’s site UNphotographable collects periodic journal entries documenting that familiar, often frustrating, decisive moment in which a camera is not at hand to snare a striking visual event.  Murphy’s commentary on his project reminds us that being a photographer isn’t just a label for an occupation or for one’s visual media preference — it often defines the manner one veiws with and interacts with the world.
