Like Father, Like Son
This photo essay is titled Like Father, Like Son and is comprised of photographs I took of my husband, James West, and father-in-law, Blake West. These two men have worked together on and off as deep-sea fishermen for several decades in Bermuda. Their ability to work together both on the water and on land makes them a unique and well-respected father/son fishing duo. While making a living off of the ocean, they maintain a conservative approach towards fishing. In attempts to understand the minds of their fish, Blake and James move as the fish do. Father and Son are up well before the morning light to assess the weather and seek out blue water. My photographs offer a “behind the scenes” look at Blake’s and James’ day-to-day life.
