The Cville People Project, a documentary photography project, was partially inspired by the Humans of New York website, which is the result of the attempt of one photographer to provide a sort of photographic census of New York City.
However, the focus of this project is somewhat different. I believe that we come to know a city through the people who live there, so my goal is to depict the city of Charlottesville through its inhabitants. I intend to make portraits of as many Charlottesvillians as possible and share them, along with a little bit about each person, on this photoblog.
Feel free to contact me at cville.people@gmail.com if you would like to be part of the project or know someone who would.
You can see more of my photos on my other blog The Things I've Seen and on my Flickr stream. You can also follow me on Instagram (K_A_Sprouse) or Twitter (@K_A_Sprouse).

Chris, the history student
Chris was sitting with his friend Laura outside of the Mudhouse, one of my favorite Charlottesville haunts, when I asked him for a portrait. He told me that he’s from Richmond and was visiting Charlottesville for a friend’s wedding. Chris is a graduate student in history and hopes to teach history when he finishes his master’s degree. He sure looks a lot cooler than my history teachers ever did!
