Wrestling with the end of youth...

scroll to the end for the FULL STORY

A poignant ode to youth, with skateboarding, alcohol drinking, smoking, loitering, partying, and all hedonistic, destructive joys.

Do all violent delights lead to violent ends,
inevitably like a crashing car?

How does one survive from
an incident
a drug overdose
a shooting
police brutality
youth
life,
and oneself?

The Last Survivor is the First Suspect by Nick Haymes is at once a celebration and a requiem. The project, captured between 2005 and 2009 by photographer Nick Haymes, is a record of a drifting community of young friends based mainly between two distinct geographic points: Southern California and Tulsa, Oklahoma. The book's narrative merges a sense of joy in documenting burgeoning friendships and bonds, and a looming sense of dread that would ultimately culminate in a series of tragedies.
