Tyler is probably one of the best baristas I have encountered in coffee shops that I have visited. A bit reserved he is cordial, helpful, and non-intrusive. I met him at Collected Works Bookstore and Coffeehouse on Galisteo Street where I visited regularly for my daily latte and a bit of internet work. I think that I caught him in a pensive mood here. Originally from Nashville, Tyler graduated from St John's in Santa Fe in 2009, left after graduation, but then returned about 10 months ago. I think that the pull of the Southwest got to him, too!
He does look like he's deep in thought there Kate, he has a very strong profile, you captured him well.
ReplyDeleteYes he is a very quite young man. Most of the time that I have been in there he is usually reading.
ReplyDeleteInteresting portrait..."pensive" is the right word.
ReplyDeleteIs there a Santa Fe College also? I have a friend here in Stone Creek who went to school in Santa Fe for awhile many years ago.
This is a fine portrait, I like the pose.
ReplyDeleteTyler, a black flavored something. Ah....!
ReplyDeleteTerrific portrait, Kate. See? You don't need to have a smiling person looking right at you to have a memorable portrait. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteOh there is nothing better than knowing where to go for a good coffee! Great capture of his pensive mood here Kate.
ReplyDeleteHe looks deep in thought.
ReplyDelete& yes, santa fe does have a way of pulling you back, does it not?
