My name is Evan Hutchings and I am freelance photographer based in Woodbridge Detroit, MI. I have been taking pictures using various cameras since early 2014. This came about when I learned from a friend all through high school but finally wanted to get my own camera later on. I started by using my moms old film cameras and got my first digital Nikon, which I still have to this day. From there I moved to Detroit and my roommate was starting a non profit to build a DIY skate park down the street from our house. I helped him the first couple days and I realized something very special was happening. I knew I had to start taking pictures to document this process. This went on for five years! We held countless parties, events, contest, skate lessons, and we learned a lot along the way. I took photos almost every single day as if it was my job. In 2020 I decided to start making a photo book about it to make sure the story was told forever. I made a pitch deck and got funding for the book in 2022 and the I self published the book. The book is called “The Wig” named after the skate park and it came out September 1st, 2022. I have sold it in twenty different retail locations, it is available in the Detroit public library, and now the park and our story live on forever. On top of that I have worked taking pictures over the years for companies like Stroh’s, 1xRun, Red Bull, Vice, Shinola Hotel, Vans, and Turkish Airlines. As well as held my own photo series at two local art galleries.
